Congratulations on the one baby. How small is he? It will be interesting to see him grow. Any idea how long it takes for him to reach full size?
We have had more baby snails hatch out. I think at a last count there was at least 7 of them. Trouble is when they hide in the soil it can be difficult to see them as they are so tiny and blend in perfectly.
I'm not sure how long it will take them to grow to full size. Once they get a lot bigger then I will put them in with the adult snails. There were some more eggs laid last week but this time I have frozen them and then will destroy them. Don't need anymore I don't think. I think if the albinos eventually lay eggs I will keep a couple of the eggs to hatch but the rest will have to be destroyed.
