Description

Species: Archachatina marginata ovum (L. Pfeiffer, 1858)
Color variety: pseudoleucistic

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.

Snails of the pseudoleucistic color variety are characterized by exceptional elegance, which is emphasized by darkened feelers against a background of light body color. The dominant body color is white, cream or shades of ivory. The grayish-brown coloration of the feelers smoothly transitions into a light color – the transition effect (ombre) 🖤🩶🤍 between two adjacent shades creates a distinct contrast with the rest of the body, giving snails of this variety a unique appearance. The distribution of dark areas can apply not only to the ruddy feelers, but also to the head. The sensilla of only hatched baby snails are quite dark, but they can become lighter as they grow up.

Typically, the size of the shells of the species reaches a sizable size, about 12-15 cm.

Like most species in the genus Archachatina, these snails are undemanding and thrive when provided with basic maintenance conditions.
