1, the secrets of snail movement: snails crawl by the abdominal foot, each time the speed of the crawling process remains unchanged, that is, the snail is moving at a constant speed. Snail crawling speed with the gastrocnemius movement has a direct relationship, we see the snail gastrocnemius muscle contraction from the back to the front end, and then the gastrocnemius is released, the snail was able to fully extended, the body slides forward, the gastrocnemius muscle is a wave contraction movement.

2, the snail sense of smell of the secret: snails have a sense of smell, and very do not like things with irritating odor.

3, the snail breathing secrets: poured half a cup of water, put five or six snails into the water, each snail fell into the water, they immediately put their heads out, all towards the top of the cup to climb. This shows that snails need to breathe air.

4, snails are afraid of salt water: snails are mollusks, the body of water accounted for a large proportion of the flesh, when you see out of the liquid, it is not water, but because of the exudation of water, the original volume becomes smaller. In fact, the snail does not melt, just the body rapid dehydration, but the internal organs and major organs are in.

Life habits:

Snails like to live in the dark and damp, loose humus environment, day and night, afraid of direct sunlight.

The snail likes to live in a dark and humid environment with a lot of humus, day and night, most afraid of direct sunlight, sensitive to environmental response, the most suitable environment: temperature 16-30 ℃ (23-30 ℃, the fastest growth and development); air humidity of 60% to 90%; feeding soil humidity of about 40%;

pH is 5-7. When the temperature is lower than 15 ℃, higher than 33 ℃ when the hibernation, lower than 5 ℃ or higher than 40 ℃, then it may be frozen to death or heat death. But various snails vary.

Snails like to burrow into the loose humus in the habitat, egg laying, regulating the body humidity and absorb some of the nutrients, the time can be up to 12 hours long. Omnivorous and partiality coexist. Prefer humidity and fear of flooding. In the humid night, and put into the wet food, the snail's appetite is active. But flooding can make the snail suffocate.
