I have raised terrestrial snails for some years, but have never solved the
calcium problem, i.e., what do you give them for a calcium source. I have
supplied them with limestone (which I assumed was their natural source), but
that doesn't seem to work. They inevitably eat each others shells. Perhaps
some of our escargot-raising membership can suggest something. Cuttlefish bone?
