Lucky to have chickens! The urban solution here is to dump the snails in the middle of a traffic island on a busy road...

Hey, everyone: Thanks for stopping by and forgive us the gross-out. But it was just so...riveting. The girls have a role model in neither parent, so I'm not sure how they became such slug-hunting knightresses (as Jane Marie puts it). But they do us proud in the garden, as everywhere.

Bravo, to your intrepid young hunters! I clap to the success of their snail hunt (and on behalf of the chickens) though it's best I do that once my hands are clean and empty from my own snail and slug hunt. I found a couple today that I think could pull a tractor.

Good to show us this picture of garden snails. As for the kids, I'm sure they will fond memories of dad and his garden when they grow up.

I echo the eeewwww's and yuck's. But well done to your girls. Not sure Garden Girl would do the same. But then I struggle to pick them up so she hasn't exactly got the greatest teacher in her 'know no fear' class.

Good that they are not afraid of snails. You can tell them to catch snails anytime ;-) As for me... I can only hold the shell... cannot let it 'walk' on my hand like that... errrryyyrr...

Your garden was surprisingly pristine, given the weather, sportslover. It was a pleasure flicking off what slugs we did find. And wasn't it nice that the sun was out and we felt HOT?
