i assume if you got one of those plastic pet keeper things and supplied them with food such as cucumber and other vegetable matter and you had at least 2 of them they would reporduce. if i remember correctly their messy thigns if your talking about your common garden snail.

Well I just bought some today from pet shop - Pieces company sell them, like the crickets and woodies. and you are looking around $6 for 6 snails. My blue tongue will eat all of them in a couple of days. He will end up eating better than we do!
