Feeding Mystery/apple Snails

[AshleySpatula]

i have a few mystery snails and i know people feed em cucumber or shelled peas (frozen or fresh) but i have a whole bag in the freezer of some veggie mix that no one in the house is gonna eat and i was wondering if yellow squash, broccoli, snow peas or water chesnuts work for them as well?

Can't vouch for the others in your mix, but my two Apple Snails, two Guppies and Shrimp like Brocolli

I'd guess they'd eat the others, just defrost & blanch them and try it, I can't see that it would do any harm.

They will eat green beans........I remove the seeds
squash
collard greens
broccoli
spinich
romain lettuce
raisens
grapes
brussel sprouts
carrots

I cook them a few minutes to slightly soften then up before they get it..........don't let veggies in water more that a day or they foul the water.

you can make snail jello, thye love it..................jar of baby food, pack of knox gelaton, some crushed up fish flakes, a crushed calcium tablet or a few drops of kents liquid calcium. Let it set up in the fridge, cut into squares and freeze..give them a jello treat a couple time a week..........they love it
good luck..............
