land snail substrate

hi, i have had land snails in the past and have always used coir block or peat, i have just bought 30 babies and have nearly evrything ready the tank, the substrate etc but when it comes to the winter and it is nearly imposible for me to get out to buy some more substraet for them i have had a look on zooplus and am wondering if this will be fine to use on them Repitle Cannabis Bedding: Great Deals at zooplus or Hagen Exo Terra Terrarium Substrate Jungle Earth at zooplus

Re: land snail substrate

I use the grey snail centre liners - you spray them with water and they retain the moisture so you can keep the humidity up. It's far less messy than using peat/coir etc. You can buy them on-line from Small-Life Supplies.
