Description
Species: Achatina achatina achatina (Linnaeus, 1758)
Color variety: standard
Special lineage designation: “Nigeria”.
Offered young specimens from an unrelated parental pair. Thanks to the continuous selection of suitable partners and the creation of pairs from generation to generation, unrelated pedigree breeding lines of beautiful giants are successfully maintained.
Achatina achatina achatina is one of the most impressive representatives of terrestrial giant snails, which attracts the attention of lovers of exotics with its size and extremely impressive shell. Its majestic orange-brown shell, decorated with distinctive dark stripes like tiger-like patterns, is living proof of nature’s mastery of form and color. These snails lead a balanced, mostly nocturnal lifestyle. Young individuals spend many hours in secluded, cozy corners, where they develop their delicate shell growth. Among the various species of giant snails you can find great gluttons, but not all species eat a lot. Young Achatina achatina sometimes have an appetite, and sometimes after taking a few bites they return to rest again. The snail eats as much food as it needs and cannot be overfed. Depending on the species, the age of the snail, the extent to which it is full from previous feeding, the break between meals can take up to several days. As they grow up, snails of this species become more interested in portion size and their surroundings. However, they still spend most of their time on the terrarium bedding, like to take naps and remain conservative in their food choices.
Adults usually reach about 15-16 cm of shell.
Snails of the species Achatina achatina have a balanced, mostly nocturnal lifestyle and grow slowly. They thrive when provided with stable basic maintenance conditions. A convenient way to assess the effectiveness of care is to observe its active development, visible, among other things, through the construction of new, aesthetically pleasing shell growth.
