Hi, iv found him today,he probebly fell since its very windy today. He was on the floor with a big brake in his shell, and the normal opening sealed with estivation seal.Since ive found him he is trying to brake further his shell ,He isnt bubbeling or twiching for now, the brake is in a place where theres a good chance that he dosent have any internal or organs demages, but its not certain. For now hes in a tank with coco husk ,food,water and alot of humidity. Im thinking i should brake the piece that he is trying to brake, like in a way that the broken hole and the shell opening will connect, what do you think? ill upload pictures soon

I am not sure love but if someone in the know says it can harm him then try and remove the slug. That is what I would do. I think it is wonderful how yu are helping him.

Wow, I've never before heard of a slug ending up inside a snail's aestivation seal. The nature is full of tiny slugs, he will be okay.  Just see that you release him in a shade so he doesn't dry up. Also if it is at all possible to identify him, it'll be good if you can release him near his natural food sources. Some of the tiniest slugs feed on rotting wood or that kind of thing. If that's not possible, try to take him to a similar environment to where you found him. How's the snail? |
