Baby GALS (Available April)!
Description
I have some baby GALS (Lissachatina fulica Wildtype) that will be available to purchase at 16 weeks, which they hit around mid-April. I can ship through Canada Post at buyer's expense. They will be $25 each, properly culled to ensure only the biggest/healthiest of clutches are re-homed.

These are Giant African Land Snails. They live as many as 10 years and can reach adult shell lengths of up to 7.5 inches. They are a regulated species, deemed an agricultural threat in Canada, so knowledge and preparation are KEY. Proof of proper husbandry is required.
These are just like your average garden snails in terms of food and maintenance, so be sure to offer lots of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, herbs, and flowers. They benefit from a constant supply of cuttlebone or eggshells and weekly protein feedings to promote consistent growth. Protein options include: bloodworm, brine shrimp, daphnia, gammarus, raw fish, chicken, or shrimp, oatmeal, fungi and lichens, spirulina, or there are even commercial snail diets that can be purchased online (look on Etsy).
Never —I repeat, NEVER— release GALS into the wild. If you no longer wish to keep them, re-home them or return them to me free of charge.
