i`m happy with whatever you guys want to do,all i`m asking is postage price which untill they arrive i wont know.as soon as they arrive i will let you know what the postage should be.there will be 11???i only need 2 as these are self breeders and do not need a mate.1 is for my daughter and 1 is for a mate. they can lay upto 200 eggs which if you do not want inundated you freeze!

i'm probably wrong but don't you need 2of these to breed? I thought they were hemaphrodites, but you still need two to actually reproduce...

Breeding: Snails are hermaphrodites (male and female at the same time) and if adults are in ideal conditions and breed, they can lay 200 eggs each. They can burrow under the peat to lay. From one mating, several clutches of eggs can result because the snails keep a “love dart” of spermatazoa under the skin behind the head. If you don’t want to end up with babies, just freeze the eggs in a plastic bag for a couple of hours and dispose of them. Left, they will hatch in 14-21 days. If keeping them, it’s best to put the eggs in a separate container from the adults to make it easier to clean out the big ones and avoid the babies being disturbed or squashed when they hatch.


think you need 2 to begin with but not once they`ve mated as looks like they keep giving birth without further matings!
the gals are all gone now thanks to all interested.
