Snails!

I'm big fan of snails! I really want one as a pet, unfortunately I seem to be the only one at my house who thinks like that. ;) Did you know that they have a life-span of 3 to 15 years? I didn't know they could live that long! Once my cousin and I found over 20 snails at the beach! We collected them in a box filled with sand and some water. After a while they started to form a pile, so we had to let them go since we didn't want them to get squished, and feel cramped. Sorry, I know you didn't ask for my life story! Snails usually eat mushrooms, fruit, leaves and bark, but they can also eat limestone, chalk, damp paper and even cardboard! I wouldn't make those part of their diet though, I don't know how good it is for them. I hope you enjoyed my snail-dedicated post
