RE: SNAILS Al Brown

I had an interesting happening that I would like to share regarding snails. I
received some notho palmqvisti eggs in peat about a month ago that were aged
about three months. I placed the peat into a hatching container and noticed
some snail shells in the peat. I didn't think anything of it and got a great
hatch from the eggs. On the second day I noticed the snail shells were
climbing up the walls. They (ramshorn) snails were still alive after being
stored in moist peat for 3 months.
