We are the only online shop that has a private courier and can offer this service at this price. However, when the snails are shipped depends on a few factors.

Care tips
This species needs: 90% humidity – this means the glass must always be fogged up! This is the most important thing.
Drainage is also highly recommended. Otherwise, the soil becomes waterlogged and the nitrite that then forms attacks the shells.
The temperature should be warm. Heating is recommended. Lime the soil with 95% calcium carbonate. Different snail species must not be kept together in one terrarium. The recommended group size for this species is at least 3 animals.
