The Little Brown Snail in an Australian backyard. This blog documents my mis-haps, conquests, set backs and findings in the world of backyard Heliculture(snail farming) in Australia. Please follow along if you are at all interested in the expensive little mollusc's you have in you very own garden, perhaps by the end you may also be considering such a lucrative hobby as a potential business venture.

Checking the snails
Everything looks to be going well in the farm, do not see a lot of movement till I moisten the enclosure. Basically only changing food plus keeping things moist, just hope there is some breeding going on. It is interesting to see the varieties in the shell patterns, one would have to ask themselves how on earth to breed that out.
I am pleasantly surprised that all the snails look healthy and happy (as happy as one could be with being placed into captivity).
