snail diary day 6

Today we found a new snail and brought it home. We named it Tamby (tiny) as it was the smallest of them all.

We were very worried that the original three snails were not eating. So we picked periwinkle and a type of tiny purple flowers, "lily pad" and the leaves from the snails' habitat. 

I reminded mama that Tamby was in our container, so I took it out before we washed the flowers. We fed the flowers and leaves to the snails. We stuck the food on the sides of the tank (with eggshells) near to the snails. The snails ate most of it (except lily pad)! I felt very relieved!
