I love that snails learn to make a queue to the bath, though. They figure out pretty quick that it's just not a good idea for everyone to jump in at once.
Of course, if someone occupies it for way too long, problems ensue haha.

That is the trouble Etana love, whoever gets there first hogs the water bowl and then there are all kinds of messes. An orderly queue does not stay orderly for very long lol. Yes Picklepies hunni you are right. If we have to queue for too long for something we get rattled don't we LOL?!

EXCITING NEWS www.flickr.com/photos/142006134@N03/35635474593/in/dateposted-public/#We have babies! I found them under some old food, so carefully put them on new food instead They looked exactly like when snails lay eggs, in a little cluster in a warm spot, except they have little shells instead of eggs :* They are just starting to wake u and move, with their little heads and huge eyes! I'm excited to see if their shell flour changes, as they were hatched by Tonks the Zanzibar, and by all accounts the albino trait *should* be recessive now a normal trait has been introduced? I'll keep you all updated xx

Congrats! Recessive gene doesn't mean there absolutely won't be albino babies, you'll see it in the following days as they get their pigments.

Lol I terrible at genetics! It looks like a lot of the babies are developing dark stripes, though there does appear to be 2 or 3 albino x
