Ahh that's so great to watch, I'm glad you got a front row seat. My fulica were a bit less romantic yesterday. Tauno was pushing his bulge into Robert's face, and Robert looked like he was saying "ew, go away". Hopefully I too will soon see something that looks more like real love.

Ha ha, it must be like having something else shoved in your face if you don't want it LOL!!! Yes, I asked Paul to get me a torch today is I could look into little shells but he forgot it and has promised to get it tomorrow. Snailies are like us, they have just pure sex and the nicer side, romantic love. It is interesting to watch them though and see the difference.

Yes indeed. It's quite surprising, they're supposed to be "just snails" but there really is so much to see. My wild caughts have such soap operas during the short summer away from hibernation, I don't need TV soaps lol. But even they can have what looks like a true committed relationship too, and then there are some individuals who just want to mate with everyone who snails by lol. Also I used to have identical Arianta quintuplets or something, who liked to sit in a ring and everyone would kiss and caress everyone else. It was fun until someone wanted more, and it always, each and every time, went wrong. Still they did it a lot.

It annoys me Etana love when people say "It's just a" about any animal. Little creatures are much deeper than most of us give them credit for and they all have their own little ways. Ha ha, yes, some want one partner and others want to s... everything in sight, same with most men really LOL!! Ha ha, that sounds like a snaily orgy love, everyone kissing everyone else or even a wife swapping party where all the car keys are put into a bowl and it becomes a "lucky" dip. I bet it did go wrong, I bet some human orgies have too LOL!! Thank you for telling me about all these wonderful snaily moments Etana love, I so love to read them and tell Paul about them.
Hugs JO xx

Ooh I think there's new kind of love in the air here. Seppo and Iisakki. Looks like their very first attempt at love-making went wrong somehow (I saw Iisakki attached to Seppo's shell, both rasping their own bulges), but they're still young, with lots of time to learn.

Oh lovely, I will look forward to more tales from these two little snailies Etana hun. It is all very confusing at the moment for them but they will have fun learning what it is all about bless them.

Just in case there's someone who's not seen what happens after the initial kissing and courting, here's a video of two of my fulica. My tank bottom isn't covered in snails lol, they just love to hang around in piles.
Unfortunately this turns out to be another failed attempt at love, but at least they both wanted it and really truly tried. It's as though they can't find where to stick their parts! Poor snails. Also I like that the guy with the bad shell finds love too, they just have a few things to learn I guess.

This is so lovely Etana love, that is one large bulge he has there. I am sorry it was a failure but at least they had a lot of fun trying love them.

Thanks Jo. I kept hoping it'd work out for them! Hahaa, I'm only now watching the many facial expressions of the rodatzi on the right. Quite funny.
