Trapdoor snail babies!
Posted: Sat Sep 17, 2011 2:47 pm
So I was feeding a Japanese Trapdoor Snail to Ramses yesterday, and as he was brutally tearing it apart, I saw a sack with what looked like baby snails. I netted the partially demolished adult snail and removed the sack. They are livebearers and I was able to squeeze about 10 pea size or smaller snails from the sac. I put them in my breeder tank, all in the same corner. I didn't expect any of them to survive, especially after they just sat where I left them for a good 6 hours, but lo and behold, I woke up this morning and all of them but one was on the glass! I just wanted to share my success story as a snail midwife lol.
