today was Niles and Chibi’s second tank day! I actually waited until the evening, but I got a bit impatient waiting for Niles to come out of the house; I handled him a little roughly and while I didn’t hurt him he was foaming up quite a bit. Putting him in the temporary tank helped a little, but he was still foaming so I picked him back up, held him in my palm, and stroked his shell. Immediately he stopped foaming and started crawling across my fingers! He gave my hand a couple of snail kisses and then I set him down to clean :)

Another cool thing that happened is that Chibi was feeling pretty energetic, and my partner agreed to hold her for the first time! They were both a little unsure at first but Chibi ended up doing happy wiggles 🐌 she stayed there for a min before coming back over to me.

The new water dish I ordered arrived too. It’s Barbie pink and super soft, shallow, and flexible. I’m not sure if the sniblings like it more than their jam jar lid, but I feel more at ease haha.

The sniblings also got a new roommate! I have been keeping an eye out for pillbugs and finally found one tonight, a pretty big boy too! I named him Gob. Hopefully they all get along! I want one or maybe two more pillbugs from my garden. I really hope that this will help cut down on the gnats swarming my patio somewhat 💀 taking away their food during the day helps but I feel bad doing it. I keep telling myself that they’re sleeping anyway and I make sure they eat every day lmao.

Wow if you read this far congrats and thank u lol. If you want to see more pics of these precious little slime balls I did make an Instagram for them: @thesupersniblings I’m not great at IG but I do want to post more over there too? anyway snail you later everyone!
