Everyone say Hi Fred! Video

It took me a very long time to decide on a name, but my friend suggested Fred and it seems right!! He’s the only one of my three who seems very strong and active. One has passed away, and the other is just pretty slow and inactive, which I’m hoping isn’t a bad sign! I didn’t name either of those two so I wouldn’t get attached 😅

Sweet Geebus that is a great looking snail!

I mean, I can easily give you 5/5 for antennae, teeth and attitude and a tentative 5/5 on foot and face. I'd love to see more of Fred, he is scoring off the charts!

My favorite Fred Detail is the … striping? that you can see on his foot! I can see it best around the edges at the bottom. very cool, no clue if that’s normal or not

Yes in many species they have that dramatic marbling! Not all though so it's kind of special in the species available in North America.
