Barbvday Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I breed mystery, rabbit, Colombian ramshorn and other snails. I inevitably have a surplus of bladder and ramshorn snails that I remove in the regular. I give them away to people with critters that will eat them but I still have a bunch more. It feels like a waste to just to freeze and dispose. Has anyone done frozen snail cubes, grind them or something of the like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountaintoppufferkeeper Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I haven't done snail cubes but I also have quite a few pest snail eaters. If I were to try the snail paste in a grinder bought just for the intention of making fish food I would add maybe a little vitachem etc just to increase the nutrition a bit. and freeze the paste in a ziplock to break off as needed or a cube to drop in. And probably permanent marker that deal so my wife didn't use the snail grinder accidentally on coffee or something. Depending on the size of the fish involved in feeding the snails, I would consider just doing frozen whole or crushed frozen snails added into a repashy mix etc. then freezing that so that they could uncover and eat them as they went. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JettsPapa Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Do you have shrimp? If yes, they'll swarm all over a freshly crushed snail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anewbie Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 My loaches would love them; why don't you come over here and let the snails say hi to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbvday Posted March 3, 2022 Author Share Posted March 3, 2022 I like the idea of mixing with Repashy food… I can probably get a cheap processor since I’ve gathered hundreds of snails by now. thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
