You are welcome to bring it over tomorrow. Almost all hermits will take a liking to snails, they'll kill them to upgrade shells. It's normal behavior for them.

hi sarah, i know they will but this one killed 3 newly introduced astral snails within 10 hrs. we saw 2 events and tried to unsuccessfully intervene and this am it was sporting a shell from one of the astrals and still is going at it....seems a little over the top compared to the others. yep we'll bring him over.

My largest snail is the size of a tennis ball, and I've had it for 5 years now -- so I'd like to see your hermit try to take Bertha on!!!
