Does anybody know anything about how to culture snails? I have a ton around my house and already a colony of over a hundred collected but would like to learn how to propogate them myself.

If you've collected that many, house them together in high density and high humidity and you won't have a problem with them proprogating... Trust me, you'll have snails coming out of your ears in no time...

use a light substrate as they will lay eggs in the soil... I use coco bedding...
