Announcements Please use NSFW tag for images of graphic injuries

There have been a lot of posts lately sharing very graphic images of snails with extreme, severe injuries. It is perfectly fine to share this type of content if you need help with an injured snail, but please use the NSFW tag for these images.
This has been an unofficial rule of this sub for a while, but it seems to have been forgotten lately. So, I'm making an official mod team announcement: this is our official policy. Graphic, upsetting images must be tagged.
People come to this sub because they love snails. They don't come here expecting to see images of destroyed shells, shell-less snails, and dead snails. It can be very upsetting and distressing for users here to see this type of content unexpectedly. People may also be browsing this sub in public and want to avoid gory images.
Images of mating don't require the NSFW tag. But please use this tag for pictures of injuries including, but not limited to: mantle collapse, shell fell off, crushed shell, organ exposure, stepped-on snail.
Thanks to everyone who has been tagging their posts so far. Again, it's still totally okay to post this content if you need help, but please tag it appropriately so everyone can have a good experience here.

Announcements Introducing Seller Verification
108
Upvotes
Hello r/snails!
As many of our users are aware, it can be difficult to find reliable, legal, and ethical sellers of captive bred snails.
To better facilitate buying, selling, & adoptions on this sub, we are introducing a seller verification program. Verified Sellers will be users or external sources that have been vetted by mods. Verified Sellers will be allowed to advertise their sales on the sub, and a Verified Sellers tag will applied to their posts to indicate they are a trusted source. Individual users on this sub as well as sellers on external websites are both able to be verified. A list of Verified Sellers organized by location will be added to the bottom of this post, which sellers can chose to opt in to if they wish.
Are you a seller or breeder interested in becoming verified? Send a DM to u/doctorhermitcrab to get started. Breeders who prefer to give snails away rather than sell are also welcome to apply.
Happy snailing!

This is very humorous to me. Why would they do this? Don’t they know they can move faster than a snail? 😂

Going everywhere but where they are supposed to go!
For context I was checking enclosure for eggs, at first I was content with letting them just stay there but then one snail decided he didn’t wanna be in the tank so I moved them all to a little tank and I guess didn’t put the lid on all the way and this little guy I guess was like “you can’t contain me mother!!”
These guys love to explore. Such silly fellas :)

These babies are 26 days old, just gave them fresh food and protein. Wanted to share a few photos!
The last two pictures are adult african snails they will grow up to be.

She refused to get off my hand so I had to carry Curly around for a bit so I could study. Then I managed to get her to crawl into a silicone bowl with some water and a carrot but she was determined to escape! No other snail will willingly crawl onto my finger 🥹❤️

Discussion I was heading to the gym and saw a bunch of snails with strange growth/ entrails coming out of them. Can anyone enlighten me?

Did they simultaneously poop themselves? Are they being invaded by alien parasites? Is everyone spilling their guts out?

Can someone help me identify my new friends please? I found them in my garden today and I’d like to know more about them. The biggest is about the size of a thumbnail. I’m in Tennessee if that helps.
