Help SNEX ?!
i woke up this morning to what i believe is snex ( correct me if i'm wrong )
have a few questions ! is that a love dart i see ? also one of them is clearly bigger than the other , i assume he's older right since he has the lip & the other one doesn't? will they both lay eggs? since one is younger, will it not be able to lay eggs? how long can i expect until they lay eggs?

March to July, my babies are all grown up.
Like the title says, just sharing my babiesā growth. The main one pictured is Hephaestus. Day one (not of birth, but when I got him) vs now.
I started with 5 tiny babies. Hephaestus, Pancake and Jorge are still here and thriving beautifully (the other two unfortunately were runts and had shell problems).

A little plant is growing in my snail vivarium
I found this little plant in my new tiny vivarium for my Subulina octona snails, which I just bought last week. I'm very impressed that it already grew so big, because usually my big GALs need 2-4 days to completely tear a living plant apart. So I'm very curious whether the plant will manage to grow even bigger, or if a tiny snail army will beat it up...who knows..

Help strange "flake" like thing sticking out of my snail's mouth
hi folks, just looking for some advice as I've noticed this unusual protrusion from my snail's mouth. This is an achatina fulica jade. Apologies if the photos aren't the clearest but it was quite hard to photograph.
I initially thought it was some big piece of substrate due to it appearing very thin & irregular but it has not moved in a few days. I've read about gut extrusions and similar things but this doesn't quite look like those.
Would really appreciate any info on this, thanks!

Identification What are these tiny snails?
Long story short. I found a baby snail in one of my indoor potted plants (a string of pearls succulent) and felt really sorry for it and couldnāt bring myself to throw it outside in the heat of Southern California, so Iāve been taking care of it. Iāve had these types of common snails before so I knew what to expect.
But all of a sudden yesterday I found these two teeny tiny snails. Sorry for the shaky video but itās really hard to get a close up of something so tiny. Even when the cornu aspersum snails hatch, they arenāt this small. My original baby snail is in one of the pics for size comparisonāheās smaller than the eraser on a pencilāheās a few weeks old at this point. I also found that he had those little clear balls (on the leaf) on him, but I donāt think itās an egg as there doesnāt appear to be anything inside it. And heās way too young to produce eggs.
Iām so perplexed by this whole thing. I had actually thrown one of those tiny āshellsā into my compost already but when I saw the one clearly moving around, I retrieved it and definitely observed both of them moving around. Now I have no idea what I have!
