Achatina Care: How to Give Your Snail the Perfect Shower

Showering your Achatina snail is important for its health and hygiene. Regular water baths help keep your snail’s shell hydrated and free of dirt or waste. To shower an Achatina, place it in a shallow dish with lukewarm water, making sure it’s not too deep. Gently rinse the snail with water or splash it lightly, avoiding any harsh chemicals or soap. This removes dirt, mucus, and skin flakes. Afterward, allow the snail to dry slightly before returning it to its habitat. Regular showers promote a healthy, happy Achatina with a clean, shiny shell.
