Giant African Land Snail

This is Speedy my 6" long GALS. Had him (technically he has both sex organs but whatever) for over 2 years now. I first got him in an egg that looked like a tic-tac and he has been the only pet I have kept long term for the past few years. He is an easy going dude, a very simple pet to keep, and all around enjoyable.

 

His tank is lit by a rosate bulb because I grow millet grass in his tank periodically to keep him fed off fresh greens.

 

Enjoy :)

My friend had a pair he was breeding; he used the offspring as food for his various reptiles. One day I was bored so I asked him for an egg (they are about the size of a tic-tac) and 2.5 years later I have Speedy! His breeding pair have since been destroyed and so have all the remaining babies.

Too bad - Ontario can't sustain them for a full season...

I didn't noticed you were in canada, i dont know there but you might be right a winter in the wild and you end up with snail popsicles.
