Slugs and snails are hermaphrodites with both male and female sexual organs. When they mate, each snail will fertilise the other, and each snail will then produce offpsring.
If it's a water snail, however, there is a difference between the two genders.
Snails actually don't have genders most of the time. Some apple snails do. So do mystery snails. They lay eggs and if you only have one snail, find out what gender it is and then buy the opposite gender.
If You Look Under a Snail You Will Either see Just a Flat bit Or 2 Little Bumps, These Bumps are Hard To See So Look Carefully. With Bumps Is A Female and Without Bumps Is A Male. Hope This Helped Ya xxxx Btw Im A 10 Year Old And I Learnt This At School Last week
You can't and their hermaphroditic ability to breed makes it unnecessary. Basically 2 snails of the same sex can breed.
You can't tell. Snails are hermaphrodites so can mate with any other similar sized snail of the same species. :)
you can't their both girl and boy and they don't need to have another snail to lay the eggs
The male has white stripes on his shell and the female has brown stripes on hers.
they are both male and female so you do not need to idenify their gender
Shells
Snails are not male, nor female. They are hermaphrodites.
A snail is both male and female, so it can mate with the first snail it meets on its travel.
The male has white stripes on his shell and the female has brown stripes on her shell.
All Snails Have female and male parts all over there bodies, so they are female and male.
There is no such thing as a male and a female snail, so there are no differences.All snails are hermaphrodites. That means they have both male and female reproductive organs. Mating snails will both sperm and lay eggs.
A snail is both female and male. They are hermaphrodites.
All snails are neither male / female. they have both gender organs.
A snail has both reproduction is that they both a reproductive system of a male and a female
just look carefully at it
There is no such thing as a female snail. Nor a male snail for that matter.All snails are hermaphrodites. They all have sperm and eggs.The patterns and colours on the shells are determined by species, not gender.
you cant really because snails are hermaphrodites; they have both male and female organs.:)
You simply do not. There are no such thing as male and female snails.All snails are hermaphrodites.That means all snails have both male and female reproductive organs. They still need to mate with another snail in order to produce and lay eggs.Some amateur gardener groups will try to say that snails with a brown-striped shell are girls whereas white stripes are boys. This is false - they are actually two completely different species. Therefore "snail breeders" breeding these two are creating a hybrid or mixed-species.So the answer to your question is that you can not tell if a snail is male or female, because snails do not have male/female genders. They are all hermaphrodites.
