Some of you may remember me asking about the color of a grown brigs that I had rescued some time ago, and the coloring of it was stumping us all. Well it ended up dieing but before it died, I found out it was female because it layed a clutch for me. That clutch has hatched and after looking at all of my baby snails...which I end up doing alot of according to my husband, I do believe I have a red white young snail. I have checked the applesnail.net references and it says if the snail has a white/ivory shell base, red /brown stripes, and white foot - it is a red white. I have compared it to my yellow striped and my light purple striped. It's coloring is different than either one. I tried to get pictures of it, but my camera will not focus without the flash, and the flash distorts the color. I think that is what happened with trying to figure out the grown snails coloring. I think it too was the elusive red white but taking pictures with the flash made the coloring look wrong. It is one snail that I will be keeping! The next question is, what sex is it.....and what color to breed it with to MAYBE get more of them.
