Walter reappeared in the tank. As there were no signs of a forced entry, we presume he never left. We also discovered a new clutch of eggs so it seems Walter had tucked himself away to give birth. Maybe the labour was induced by the excitement of the Russian TV crew? Walter is alive and well and the enclosure is now peppered with his children. If anyone would like one or two of Walter’s offspring we can post to mainland UK for a small fee…
Need more blog posts, especially on the population explosion, or lack thereof.
That snail is super tiny. Awesome macro photo as well. How goes the project? I just learned about it today.
