.

To use them just like a treat, would be a big shame, your talking natural

food items.I me self, breed snails in me backyard. when it is sesion, I

collect all the snails I can get me hands on. In one feeding day i use

abouth 160 snails, can never breed that many :upset: .

Have a small backyard.


I feed me snails wild plants from the forrest, and different kinds of

veggies.Remember calcium.





I´ts a good idea to breed them, then if you expet babys, you allways

have some small sized snails.
