i found him at work in herbs in thai basil but i’m pretty sure they wouldn’t import thai basil to Poland. Although he has a weird spiky shell and there are no species like that in poland i think

hi do i have to get a heating lamp for a dwarf african snail? I dont know if its not too cold for him but also i dont want to overheat his terrarium. I really like having a cold temperature in my room around 18 degrees so maybe a lamp would be okay? I dont really have the ability to add a heating mat since he is very young and also i have a glass terrarium. What can i do to get him to have everything he needs. he hasn’t come out of his shell since after the first evening when he walked around in the terrarium a bit and on my hand on the first day i got him. I don’t know if it’s because he is stressed or the new environment or the heat issue. I put a blanket around the walls for now so it traps heat more but i didn’t cover the ventilation part. I have a terrarium 20x20x30 for him and i have a lot of moss for him to hide in and he is just staying there.

thank u for all the advice this is how i separate calcium from food and i removed the rocks so its safer. What can i switch the ceramic bowl for? I want it to be the safest possible for him. Btw his name is chai and he is a vineyard snail. I found him in the forest once and he grew a lot when i took him.

i added a very deep burrow with sphagnum moss inside and regular moss outside to make a warm and moist place it’s kinda like his little house. Is there anything i can improve so far? <33
