I have young brigs everywhere that I'm looking to sell, $1 a snail. The larger ones are about marble sized, smaller ones closer to pea-sized. I have way more smaller than that even, but it can be hard to tell what color they will develop. All have gold bodies.

Colors:
Light striped purple - whitish/light purple base with darker purple stripes. 2 big ones, at least 6 smaller ones.
Chestnut - tan base, dark brown stripes. 6 big ones, sky's the limit on smaller ones.
Gold - one big one (smaller ones are hard to tell if they will develop stripes)
Ivory - 2 big ones, at least 2 smaller ones.

Brigs get about ping-pong ball sized, and don't eat plants! They only eat decaying plant material (or dead fish, fish food, etc). Great for algae removal and clean-up!

Shipping methods at request. Fedex overnight, 2-day, UPS ground, USPS priority, etc. These guys last better than fish in transit, overnight is not a necessity.

A couple notes for those of you that will be receiving snails:

They don't come in water - I send them in bags with damp paper like plants (although with air!) They actually ship much better this way.

They are normally really hungry after the few days of transport. Give them a little time to get used to the water then get them some food.

I couldn't make the post office on the 26th, and I'm a bit afraid to see if the Postal Service is up to standard over the next few days before New Year's (I would assume a lot of workers would be on vacation) so I will send the snails on the 2nd.

chestnut is dominant to light striped purple, and both are dominant to gold and ivory (which are codominant). purple x chestnut will give mostly chestnut. purple x purple or chestnut x chestnut will give mostly that color.

I'm getting about $5 for shipping on the calculator for 03766. $6.50 would cover that, the heat pack and the paypal fee (plus a bit of snail food) :mrgreen:

California is quite possible for shipping.
