I got my GALS today

I have read up on how to care for my new babies but i was wondering how much you should vary their diet?

Can someone give me an example of what their GALS will/wont eat?

I give mine lots of different foods and vegs

they get lots of leftover veg e.t.c

they arent keen on citrius fruits tho so i dont give them then, i think they can pretty much eat anything

Thanks for the reply

I've given them left over veg so far. I heard theyre not keen on citrus fruits and onion.

Have you ever given them scraps of raw meat or dog/cat food? I read somewhere that they can have these!? If you have tried them on any of these how did they get on with it?

Name one of them Gary! You know, like from Spongebob

Just a small thought.

Also, and this isn't intended as a rude question in any way, but I have no other way to put it but bluntly.
Why would someone want a snail as a pet?
