Keeping snails is quite simple - they eat all fresh and natural products, and in particular they love greens. Also, snails need water in large quantities, they need to be watered almost like flowers. You cannot feed a snail with food from a human table, this may deteriorate its digestion.
Instructions
Step 1
Snails are fed in the evening or closer to night, as these animals are most active at night. If you do not change the food for the snails, but only put a new one, then they can begin to eat feces. This is harmful, so every two days, remove the remnants of the vital activity of snails, as well as food that has become stale and spoiled.
Step 2
What in no case should you feed the snail? Anything that is prepared for the human table. Salt is very dangerous for the snail; it also cannot eat everything sweet, fried, spicy, smoked and pickled. Only raw and fresh food.
Step 3
Fruits and berries are one of the snails' favorite foods. Anything will do: apples and pears, strawberries, blueberries, strawberries, bananas, pineapples, peaches and nectarines, apricots, melons, watermelons, grapes and other fruits and berries.
Step 4
Fresh vegetables are the food most commonly eaten by snails in their natural environment. They especially love cucumbers because of the large amount of liquid in them, as well as tomatoes, all types of cabbage, corn, pumpkins and zucchini, carrots, all kinds of legumes: beans, peas, beans.
Step 5
Snails need calcium to keep their shells in the right shape. To provide them with a pet, give him ground eggshells, chalk, shell rock. Reassigned parrot calcium bars work very well for snails. One bar is enough for a snail for about three months.
Step 6
Any snail at all times of the day will be glad of the greens offered to the table. Salads and parsley, dill, celery and spinach, as well as dandelion and plantain grape leaves are all snail favorites.
Step 7
When to feed the snail and how much to feed it? There is no single answer to this question. Snails, which are many and often fed, grow rapidly. They will continue to grow in size until the aquarium is too small for them, then the snail will stop eating a lot. If you buy your pet a new aquarium, the snail can grow even more, it depends on the breed. Some snails reach several kilograms in weight.
