i love these guys! my original, Sidney, is huge now. i just got him a friend and the guy sent 4! so now i have 5!!! just wondered if anyone on here from the uk would b interested in haveing 1!! obviously im gonna b over run by them sometime soon and they will need good homes!!

Are they edible?

Thats terrible Mike, lol. If you are in the US they are illegal, but heck I will still take one if you can smuggle it as a regular garden snail.

illegal in us? whys that then? im not sure 1 would survive such a long journey!edible for who or wat? i have seeb them being advertised as feeder food, but for wat i dont know

blimey! hope mine dont escape and cause havoc in uk lol
i wouldnt eat them tho i dont think, yuk

you would have a hard time stomping on these buggers

Where do you keep these? What size are they just now? I'd never really heard of them but I just googled them and good grief! That's a big snail!

i keep them in a small plastic tank. ya know them kids starter fish tanks? they r easy to care for and once they r full size they will b cool to watch!
