Pond snails
 
I have a lot of pond snails grown up. I'd like to trade some of them for
some water plants/creatures if interested. Can sell some of them as well.

Pond snails
 
I'd like to trade my "pond snails" %*^*%*% from my garden too! I'm not sure
what it means, but I found two slugs floating in my teeny water garden the
other night.

I don't know what "water creatures" is JR is referencing (and I confess that
I'm asceered to find out!), but I'll happily give away any slugs I find --
unless my chessie/lab Contessa "Baby Doll" found them first and ate them!
(I love her dearly, but I learned two things when she was 12 weeks old: 1)
slugs are protein; and 2) Labs really *will* eat anything!

Pond snails
 
People buy these pond snails at pet stores for about a quarter each upto a
couple of dollars each.

I have no need for snails as I have quite a few in my garden pond
already. However I can offer some pond plants. It's that time of year
when they're going wild. I have miniature water hyacinths that I can
spare a few of and I can also offer some clippings of parrot's feather;
*maybe* some watercress or floating hearts. Reason I'm not sure of the
latter two is because I just thinned the watercress last weekend (gave a
bout 3/4 of what I had to my in-laws for their pond) and I haven't
really looked at the structure of the floating hearts since I put it in
the pond two months ago.

Anyone want any toad tadpoles? *grin* We've got a *bunch* in various
stage of development. I took pictures yesterday of the little toadlets
that have matured and left the pond (about the size of my fingernail on
my smallest finger) but haven't had a chance to post them to my webshots
site yet. The little buggers are hopping around the yard and we're
trying hard not to step on them. They're so cute!!!
