Benefits:

• Supports overall snail health with balanced nutrition and diet variety.
• Long shelf life when stored dry.
• Suitable for all land snail species.

Serving Tips:

• Snails may initially overindulge, so serve 1-2 Teaspoons per adult snail and adjust portions for juveniles.
• Feed in moderation, 2-3 times per week, to avoid rapid growth and shell damage caused by overconsumption.

Important Notes:

• Overfeeding high-protein foods can cause rapid growth, potentially leading to hairline cracks in the shell or other health issues. Always monitor shell condition and snail behaviour.
• The mix is a perfect backup food when fresh produce is unavailable but can lack some micronutrients found in greens and fruits.

Customizing the Mix:

Experiment with additional ingredients to create your own versions! We advise that the calcium content does not exceed 15% of the total mix weight, as snails cannot selectively avoid excess calcium in uniform blends.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Can I store leftovers?
No, any leftover prepared food should be discarded after 24 hours. Store the dry mix in a cool, dry place until next use.

Can I feed this to other pets?
This formula is specifically designed for land snails and is not recommended for other pets.

Why use a Supplement?
A pre-made feed mix is a fantastic addition to your snail’s diet when paired with fresh vegetables, creating a varied, balanced, and nutritious diet for your snails.

Why is the calcium limit 15%?
Calcium is essential for shell growth and maintenance in snails, but too much can lead to health issues. Since snails consume the mix uniformly, they cannot pick and choose how much calcium they ingest, so we advise keeping the calcium content low, enabling your snail to choose.
