Zoo Med Can O' Snails Turtle Food, 1.7-Ounce

Our false chameleon loves her snails! Sometimes in the can we get large snails and have to cut them up...yuck! My husband has to do that! Other times we get small snails that are just the right size for her. I always order the same product, just sometimes different sizes come in the can. They are always sealed tight and ready for our Lyla girl. I keep them refrigerated after opening and I have never had an issue with them smelling up my fridge, the lid seals tight. Highly recommend!

I’m always looking for variety in my blue tongue skink’s diet, and these canned snails are consistently a favorite. They’re a great source of protein and moisture, and my skink never hesitates to go for them, which is saying a lot, considering how picky they can be. The only downside is that the snail pieces are a bit large right out of the can. I usually end up cutting them into smaller chunks just to make them easier to manage, especially for younger or smaller skinks. Not a dealbreaker by any means, just something to be aware of. The can itself lasts me a while when refrigerated and used as a rotation item alongside other foods. No weird smells, no slime overload, and the packaging is solid. Overall, a great option to add variety and enrichment to your skink’s diet. If you’ve got a bluey who likes to keep things fancy, this is definitely worth adding to your feeding routine.

I read mixed reviews whether others pets loved it or hated it. Thought I’d at least try because I have a turtle who loves snails and pea puffers who eat snails. They are not big fans. Couldn’t tell you if it was the taste, texture or smell as they never communicated anything in particular. They just looked at like a prison bologna sandwich and swam away.

My blue tongue skink loves these things

Our E. Box turtle is not interested At All. He has not progressed into a vegetarian diet yet. He Loves slugs. As soon as he sees one, he pounces. Perhaps it is the odor and the movement that attracts him. We thought these would be easier for us since slugs are getting scarce in the yard. I tried to move one of the snails from the can around on a spoon to get his attention but no go. He will eat canned cat food over these and that certainly doesn't move.

Great product, however if your pet is not used to being fed snails.....

My blue tongue skink loves them. Amazon is requesting that I mention "thickness", "value for money", and "scent" so here goes... Thickness?: Well, the can is under 2 inches tall and less than 3 inches in diameter. The snails are half-inch and smaller little chunks that look like tiny brains. Value for money: It seems a bit pricey for "1.7 ounces" but it's used mainly as a treat so it lasts a decent amount of time. Scent: Don't stick your nose in the can and you'll be fine. It's dead snails chilling in "natural juices". It smells exactly like that sounds. But the smell isn't really strong, if you're just scooping a couple out and delivering them to the your snail eater.

Until my snail feeders start giving me a steady supply, I decided to buy these because I hear they're a skinks favorite. The only problem I have is with the packaging. The top that seals the can after opening arrived broken so I'd have to use a different method for storing it in the fridge. Luckily I plan to freeze these as my adult skink only eats about twice a week, so I don't really need it anyways. The snails aren't gooey or hard to pick out. They seem pretty firm and well together so getting them out of the can individually is easy. Pros: -Comes with quite a bit of snails, will last a single reptile a couple weeks if fed sparingly as a treat. -The smell isn't terrible - comes with it's own storing lid and spoon to scoop out the nasties - long shelf life, about 4-5 years if the can remains sealed and stored properly Cons: - a little expensive for what you get - packaging wasn't too great **Serving size is 1 to 2 snails as part of their diet or as a treat. For smaller species cut them into smaller bites.

Mein kleiner Blauzungenskink stürzt sich auf die Schnecken als hätte er noch nie vorher in seinem Leben etwas gegessen, sehr Empfehlenswert. Die Schnecken riechen nicht besonders und sind teilweise bereits zerkleinert. Da ich nur eine (noch) kleine Echse habe, habe ich kleine Portionen einfach eingefroren und taue diese zur Mahlzeit bzw als kleines leckerli einfach auf, so ist es länger haltbar als im Kühlschrank. Da der Artikel aus den USA versendet werden muss ist der Preis und die Versanddauer (waren genau 14Tage) meiner Meinung nach i.O., am besten gleich mehrere Dosen bestellen :) Alles in allem 5/5 Sterne

Our resident Blue Tongue Skink LOVES these!

My blue tongue skink loves these! He has been really fussy lately and not eating much, so I bought him some of these as a treat and he (of course) devoured them. They don't smell, they aren't "icky" like some of the canned insects can be, and they come with a wee spoon. An excellent treat for your lizard friend!

My turtles just love these. Its great to find somewhere I can order them from. They came in earlier that I expected. Will be buying again

If you are buying this for you red ear turtle DON'T. He looked at it and swam away and wanted nothing to do with it. LOVES the Crickets and Shrimp though.
