Snails make a fantastic occasional addition to the diet of many reptiles and turtles. Our convenient snail pre-packs are ideal for keepers who want to add variety, natural feeding behaviour and extra nutrition to their animals’ feeding routine.
Snails are especially beneficial for species that naturally encounter them in the wild, including:
They can also be offered occasionally as a treat to other opportunistic insectivores and omnivores, such as:
Snails are not intended as a staple food, but most suitable reptiles will happily take them when offered.
Offering a snail every couple of weeks as part of a varied feeding routine helps support overall health and wellbeing.
Our snail pre-packs are available in small, medium and large sizes so you can match the prey to the size of your reptile.
Gut-loading means feeding the snails a highly nutritious diet before offering them to your reptile, so all those vitamins and minerals are passed on.
To keep and gut-load snails, set them up much like giant African land snails:
Offer a mix of leafy greens and vegetables such as:
Feed this gut-loading diet for around 24–72 hours before offering the snails to your reptile.
Used sensibly as part of a varied feeding plan, snail pre-packs are a simple way to add natural nutrition and enrichment to your reptile’s diet.

Brilliant product. Simple to set up, clear display, and does exactly what is needed to light and heat our gecko tank. Highly recommend.
I've struggled to find this sand in my local pet shops recently for some reason. It's great for my gerbil's litter tray, nice, soft, great consistency and no dust, so I don't need to worry about my little guy's respiratory systems. Arrived super quick and what a bargain! I won't need any for a while, but when I do, I'll be coming back here :)
