How to choose the right size house for your snail?

Snails need a house that provides enough space to move around freely. However, too much space makes it difficult to find food. If you plan to keep more than one snail, it is recommended to choose a larger house. To help you with your pet nursing, we have created a free app which reveals how to create comfortable living conditions and provide snails with the necessary space for proper development. Just enter the dimensions and find out the best house sizes for your pet.

To make it easier for you to care for your snail, we have created a free app that will suggest the optimal size of its home.
Take care of your snail's comfort and make sure its house is always just right!

Additionally

Provide proper ventilation and close the lid.

Our growing containers are already with properly installed ventilation and polished vents. We recommend you the ready-made solution.
If you ventilate a container yourself, provide proper air circulation, as it is shown below, and carefully polish the vents inside the container.
