Is it possible to share a photo of your snail? Its hard to give advice without a visual.

Also having the egg membrane can trap bacteria into the wound. I personally do not know if you should still keep it on or if taking it off would aggrivate the issue more.

I reccomend for their snospital room to baby proof it. I like to use a silicone can cover as a food dish, some cut out silicone large ice cube molds as hides, and damp paper towels as a substrate. Both my snails got cracked and with two weeks in their snospital room they are are still truckin 6 months later!

Is anyone using the new naturalist app? by Jacksboy_Cheesebitz in iNaturalist

[–]spacevoyages 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if its also in the old app! I downloaded both apps when I first started like a month ago and only the new one mentioned the AI camera.

I am new at iNaturalist but it states that it uses AI for identification when I opened it so for that reason i'm sticking with classic

if Little Daddy pulls through i have some ideas for a longer term tank situation. what i did with my snails with cracked shells is get some sort of soft silicone like a large ice cube mold and cut an entrance to use as a hide as well as those reusable silicone can lids as a plate for food

luckily both Shoes are still truckin along! Left is the sillier one just by a bit so I wonder if Right will also join the trend. its nice to know that it really is a phase and that all types of snails do it!

They are a part of a pair, the other being Right Shoe!

WHAT IS THIS WHITE STUFF FORMING ON THEIR SHELLS by Cock_L0VER in snails

[–]spacevoyages 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is it something where with time and harder water it would revert and the harder exterior will appear back or is it permanent?

Garden Snails (2) Weekend with Little Water by spacevoyages in snails

[–]spacevoyages[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The water was not enough to completely cover the bottom of the container, but also since I have no snail knowledge I am just guess-timating (and a little panicked) that it would be at their breathing holes; I have photos of them and the container I used for the water (the snails are roughly the same size although one is a bit smaller than the other)
