Nuts - Not the kind that you so regularly find, with salt all over them, but the Christmas kind, the ones still in their shells that you can buy in bulk with a nut cracker.
Hemp Seed - I've heard differing reports about Hemp. Any opinions?
Any ideas how good/bad these would be for snailies?
Not whole, mind you, but ground up with dog biscuits, hemp and cuttle?

I use Hemp seeds and Pumpkin seeds blitzed in a coffee grinder - Love the smell and the snails love it aswell.
Iv recently started growing on bird seed and feeding the sproutlets to the snails and they seem to like that aswell.
Cant comment on the walnuts etc that you get in Crimbo selection as never used them
Tigs ;D
