This will probably sound a bit odd but I was wondering if the average
garden-variety plain old land snail could be kept "in captivity"
successfully.   To elaborate, I have a terrarium where my 13 year old box
turtle lives and I wondered if the addition of a few snails would be
harmful or not (do they have toxins or anything strange like that?).     I
have no idea what her reaction would be to some additional "tenants" but
she's pretty easy going, so it's worth a thought.    What do you think..
safe?  Not?

Thanks,
Nancy
