Little tip to make the terrarium longer lasting- Use some garden rocks for drainage, then put window screen mesh to separate the dirt from the rocks. Home depot usually has all that stuff for cheap! Drainage in a humid environment is very important to prevent mold/rotting. You can also try mixing in a bit of sand, bark and dried moss into the substrate for a really natural look. Consider leaf litter and acorn caps on the top as well :)
You should totally introduce spring tails. they are tiny beneficial insects that eat mold, algae, snail poop, rotting plant matter, and anything that can harm your snails. There is a lot more benefits to them and are pretty easy to cultivate.
I put some wood lice* in my tank, and they kinda multiplied like crazy. Any ideas on how to fix this? *idk If that's their name.. but they're isopods I'm sure :>
@@ikarys1703 maybe you could just get them out with tweezers? (idk how to write it) if they live naturally where you live, u can just set them outside, otherwise, you can eat them, they taste like shrimps apparently.
I would put grounded up eggshells for calcium and good shell health(: mine also love love love lettuce and cucumber, if they have babies abt 30-50 come out so like I recommend if they do hatch put them in a separate container and enclousure than the big snails lol.
When I was like 5 years old I lived in Brooklyn. I found a snail on a porch in the sun under a bench, so I took it home. I loved that snail. I went home and made him a plastic habitat, decorated it, threw in a bunch of leaves, sticks and stuff (I had no idea what snails liked hahah) I moved to NJ since, but I still have never found a snail in the wild since that day.
coconut coir and coconut husk bedding is pretty much ideal for just about any terrestrial animal, its soft, cheap, safe and holds moisture very well (i always add a bit of moss to hold even more moisture)
i thought your dog was a chicken at the beginning 😭 ive always wanted snails, and you just constructed the most amazing enclosure ever! love your channel!
I love the video!! But if you get at least more than one decor item you can use the moss to cover it so it doesn’t do much damage if they fall. Hope this is helpful!!!
My biggest milk snail is called tofu, and my smaller ones are Escargot and Scungilli. I've also got a couple little normal garden snails, they are Marvin and Frederick. My aqua snails are all variants of Gary- gariella, garriette, garrion, etc.
Ive had 2 african snails before and i would always keep a shallow dish in with them because they like to bathe and drink from it. also i would always have a thicker layer of substrate because they like to burrow but they were pretty big so needed more lol. one last tip is to keep on top of the eggs because if you dont you'll be over run with snails in no time!
It's true that there isn't a lot of information on snail care on the internet, unfortunately! I personally own my own Facebook group called garden snails where we share a lot of tips if you need any ^-^ I'd personally not recommend the mushrooms. Since they are a hard surface, they could fall from the lid onto it, and break their shells. You could also put some moss on it to make it a little softer. But all of that aside, welcome to the hobby!
You should get some plants and vintage painting and maybe you could make your own vintage looking art prints and frame it. I love how your enclosure turned out!
Ngl ive always found snails kinda creepy, when i see them i get scared the same way i do when i see a worm or spider lol. But now im really interested in keeping a few as pets, they seem like really cool little creatures
I'm taking care of a snail that came in my supermarket lettuce haha! I didn't have the cold urge to kill it (I'm not vegan or vegetarian, but I have rare meat consumption, and I try to be aware of it), we named it Gary (we were super spongebob fans as children). Anyway, we just want to give Gary a comfortable stay until the day he (she/they) dies.
I just found a garden snail in my backyard and it was raining rlly hard so I took it inside and putted it in a little plastic container and I’m planning on putting some soil from my yard and also some rocks to climb on and I might add other things too!
i gained a friendship with a garden snail i discovered after it heavily rained, i recently gave them a home and im looking to buying a proper terrarium
African Lilly, if you see this. It looks like a farn.... But the african Lilly is absolutely unpoisonous for pets. My cat's are eating them like candy and they are fine. This plant grows leaves almost a 1,5 meter of length and do look pretty as room plants.
Ok... so i got two males and i didnt know snails snails change gender so... I Wendt on a short varationsbredd and NOW i have Snoilsky everywhere... I hade a containment breach and there are a dozen snails on the wals on the celing... There was even some INSIDE my neighbours house!.?
As someone who is currently suffering from this problem.. KEEP EXTRA SUBSTRATE AND CONTAINERS INCASE THEY HAVE BABIES. TRUST ME. YOU'LL NEED IT. MY SNAILS EGGS HAVE RECENTLY HATCHED AND I NEEDED 13 CONTAINERS TO KEEP THEM HEALTHY
Is any garden snail good? Like a land garden snail not water snail a land snail Also while some like ground dirt/mud do I have a place for it but I carnt spend any money and I want a snail Can they life alone?
how much did the tank cost when you bought it? its 80 dollars now (not looking to buy one so im not upset) just wondering if your video boosted demand and then price, which I think would be interesting!
Get spring tails because snail poop alot so you have to clean them 9ut but iv your two lazy to do that get spring tails included with non insect killing soil
I dunno if this is a type a snail that reproduces quickly but if they are I hope your okay with culling them the eggs. I sadly have a lot of pest snails in my fish tank and if I see their eggs I have to cull.
Snails actually die if exposed to lots of sunlight for too pong and you have to washthe tank a lot 😂😂 they poo everywhereee and yes, snails together makes them happier but theres a higher chance of eggs.
what kind of loser gets a snail
The same kind that sits and watches me get the snail❤️ thanks for the view

@@lexTS89 Hello fellow legend🙂
@Madison Rodriguez oh im just a fanpage😅
she a runner she a trackstar 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
I would name them after mushrooms. Button, cremini, porcini, chanterelle, oyster, portobello, etc! 💚
That be cute
I literally named my snails portebello and cremini after this comment.
PLEASE that's so cute
I wouldn't, it might start people thinking about escargot...
I love these

DON'T PUT ROCKS IN A SNAIL GARDEN
Rocks, a snail could go up it. Fall down and crack it's shell. Had one die because of that, do not recommend.
@@Bloopscreatoroh I found out, they mean at the bottom of the cage. A window mesh to block, then substrate to drain the water, that comes down.
Your pets running around in the back make me so happy
Maybe something like Almond and Cashew, you know like types of milk since they’re milk snails... 😂
Omg, I love this idea! Yes! ☺️
Love this!
i like the name %2
Oat!!
wait theres cashew milk???
My boyfriend said snails are not pets, I play with them in the garden. I will be showing him this video. I’m going to get myself a snail!
Please get yourself a snail, they are pets
Anything is a pet if you're brave enough
@@ivygarcia6878 you cant keep a whale as a pet they need to be free in the ocean ..

Do they climb glass? Cause they're horrible to get in the house

Do you know where I could get some?
Since they are milk snails I would recommend naming them Almond and Cashew, ya know for almond milk and cashew milk.
I just love how you're so commited to the snails,like, you care so much for them, and I think that's adorable
I don't know who you are, but I'm staying for the snails 🐌
Same I'm also using fora bit of tutorial
I would put grounded up eggshells for calcium and good shell health(: mine also love love love lettuce and cucumber, if they have babies abt 30-50 come out so like I recommend if they do hatch put them in a separate container and enclousure than the big snails lol.
Give cucumbers as a snack, they might get addicted!
It is super common that snails will REFUSE to eat anything else besides cucumber so be careful
“MilkTea” Would be such a cute name!

That was ur soul snail!
I don’t know much about animal crossing but I’m sure there are some super cute gender neutral names you could pull from there ❤️
Put the moss in water and if it leaks green DO NOT USE IT. it's dyed
Amazing!! Also it’s fun seeng your dogs and cats in the backround
i love how towards the end her wig is just chilling on the chair in the background

I really like your pets videos so I had a snail and I am getting a pet garden snail
Looks so nice! currently building my own bioactive cottage core snail tank
watched this vid when it first came out, now i hav my own snail & im back here again!
You have a lot of pets and they are all very cool 😎😊
I want the vampire snail. Found some on Etsy but I want to do more research first.
Your wig!! I absolutely love it.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
you need to have a calcium dish ( eggshells calcium ), a food dish and a water dish❤❤
I love the video!! But if you get at least more than one decor item you can use the moss to cover it so it doesn’t do much damage if they fall. Hope this is helpful!!!
So cool! 🐌You are an amazoing pet owner and I love your vidssss! ❤️🐌:D
Omg im Alyssa too and I also love snails!!
I ordered my snails they’re coming in next week👍
It’s adorable! But I do recommend putting a few pieces of wood/twigs in there for them to hind under and climb on! 🩷🩷
That wig is way cute! I love snails. They’re soo cute!!
you would need some sort of calcium such as cuddle bone, crushed egg shells, and side walk chalk :)

We have milk snails. Same breeder. Think we got a bad batch. They aren’t doing too well
”Meow meow”
-Garry the snail
I love your Squishmallows. :P
After waching spongebob i wouldnt even be slightly suprised IF my snack started meowing
What kind of loser are you....
IF YOU DONT LOVE SNAILSSSSS!
Ok... so i got two males and i didnt know snails snails change gender so...
I Wendt on a short varationsbredd and NOW i have Snoilsky everywhere...
I hade a containment breach and there are a dozen snails on the wals on the celing...
There was even some INSIDE my neighbours house!.?
As someone who is currently suffering from this problem..

You could just cull the eggs. Put them in a bag and put them in the freezer. You’re going to end up with thousands of babies if you keep them
alive.
Is any garden snail good?
Like a land garden snail not water snail a land snail
Also while some like ground dirt/mud do I have a place for it but I carnt spend any money and I want a snail
Can they life alone?
Where did you buy your snails from?
My daughter watching this with me 💕 she thinks this is Adorable
how much did the tank cost when you bought it? its 80 dollars now (not looking to buy one so im not upset) just wondering if your video boosted demand and then price, which I think would be interesting!
i love my pet snail infact I'm holding him as I type this
And now he's on my face
Get spring tails because snail poop alot so you have to clean them 9ut but iv your two lazy to do that get spring tails included with non insect killing soil
Thankyou so much this really helped I now have 2snails and they are really happy
Goomy (like the pokemon) would be a cute name for one of the snails☺️
I dunno if this is a type a snail that reproduces quickly but if they are I hope your okay with culling them the eggs. I sadly have a lot of pest snails in my fish tank and if I see their eggs I have to cull.
Yeah I’m just gonna freeze and crush them lol
I have 4 snails
what is the dewormer you use? I just found my snail at work! help! D:
Just please don't use tap water I use distilled water for my snails because it's supposed to be better ❤🍄🐌
Can you tell me we're you got that enclosure?
I have one
If the snails fall from the ceiling onto the mushroom their shells are going to break and they will die !! Put moss on top of the mushrooms please !!!
Would this be the same for a slug..? I am going to get some so I wanna know-
Put cuttlefish bone in there you will find it in the bird section it will help there shells
How often do you change the bedding and wash the tank? And how much light do snails like? Do you keep both the snails in the same tank?
Snails actually die if exposed to lots of sunlight for too pong and you have to washthe tank a lot 😂😂 they poo everywhereee and yes, snails together makes them happier but theres a higher chance of eggs.
Can I have a link to the terrarium it’s exactly what I’m looking for that would be great thx xx
Could you please write the link of the product, please :3
what type of moss did you get?
Where did you get the terrirum?
this was so cute!! 😍😭 and i feel like Harlow would be such a cute name for a snail! :)
Clover, ginger, Sam, shroom, teddy, fluffs, Marigold, and stitch! (Random name drop) lol
Can you provide the link to where you bought the snail cage on etsy please?
cant wait for snail unboxing!!!! you are simply amazing
