Chicks, right, oops 
Here north of San Francisco, we have the European snails. If you put several in together, and breed them, and feed them well with lots of calcium, they get as big as golf balls. You can raise them in 5-gallon buckets, but when the eggs hatch, you better have fine screen over them, or else your neighbors will burn your house down. I have a friend who commercially raised these snails, but he got dissapeared by the 1989-1990 recession. He couldn't compete with the foeign product.
But I wander. I bet if BT's like African snails, the European ones will do fine. Their shells are fairly fragile.
