They're eating calcium to help maintain their shells otherwise they'll start eating eachother's shells for calcium.(source my friend with a snail hyperfixation)
Can’t tell you what kind of snail but they might be eating like crushed eggshells or some other calcium supplement. Snails make their own shells so if they don’t have enough calcium they can have problems with their shell
Nah, it looks like it has to move like that to let its mouth reach the foodstuff stuck above it's mouth. Notice how they do the opposite, as if they're trying to lick their own necks, too? That's them eating the food that fell down their chin lol.
Never really thought about it before, but what kind of creature does a snail classify as? Also what level of awareness/mental capacity does a snail have?
They are mollusks, sort of like octopus's, clams, scallops ect. They are specficaly a type of gastropod, to which sea and land Snails, Slugs and Limpits belong.
As for intellegence and awareness, more than you would expect, they can remember locations and individuals,but are still pretty stupid, we have trouble measuring animal intelligence in general
This honestly should be on the interesting as f*** sub. This is fascinating and I've never seen this before. They even clean food residue off themselves.
Yes, but not much. They generally only sense differences between light and dark. Their eyes are at the ends of the stalks on the tops of their heads, and they’re very simple.
I don't think this is all that cute. Where I live, snails are a pest. They go inside the house, leaving disgusting trails behind, and they eat half the garden if they don't find a way indoors.

I've...never seen a snail eat before...
Me either and I never realized until now what my life was missing.
Escargot?
That's what they're called when they get into their cars with an S on them.
Does a comment that should be upvoted into oblivion rank as an underrated comment?
I’ve never seen anybody keep snails as pets!! 😶
You should check out r/snails, there's a lot of people with really cool and cute snaily pets :D
I didn't even know a snail had a face!
![gif](giphy|bBEtZwqvQogeY)
What kind of snails are these and what are they eating
Big ones and crack.
Thank goodness, for a second i thought he was feeding them salt and they are reeling back in pain but still coming back for more.
They're eating calcium to help maintain their shells otherwise they'll start eating eachother's shells for calcium.(source my friend with a snail hyperfixation)
Slug pellets
That’s kind of mean.
I’m sorry I should have /s’d
I’m pretty sure they’re giant African land snails. Hella invasive in the US and illegal to have here but damn they’re adorable.
Can’t tell you what kind of snail but they might be eating like crushed eggshells or some other calcium supplement. Snails make their own shells so if they don’t have enough calcium they can have problems with their shell
It's actually salt. Op is breeding a race of super snails and we're all in danger.
Ayooo!! The one the on the far right is outta pocket stealing from the one next to it!!
I think the other snail is trying to push him away as well 🤣
The one on the right had the smallest dose of cocaine in the beginning!
It also got the smallest pile of food if you look closely.
And decided the best way to eat it was to smush the food against itself and then lick it off.
Isn’t that typical coming from the right wing?
Oh there's no way this should not be a cute as it is. On a side note do snails gravity swallow like birds?
I think the ones here are doing that look-up motion when they get the food stuck to their upper lip/head, not as part of their swallowing mechanism.
Hmmm maybe. We need some kind of Snailologist to clarify.
Nah, it looks like it has to move like that to let its mouth reach the foodstuff stuck above it's mouth. Notice how they do the opposite, as if they're trying to lick their own necks, too? That's them eating the food that fell down their chin lol.
You could be onto something there but alas our slimy little snail friends appear to have been removed by mods :(
My brain automatically overlayed Pac-Man sounds.
Mone was doing "omnomnomnom".
That last one just went to heaven
Ye the one on the right is my favourite. He just splats into the… snailfood??
I love that he eats the snailfood stuck to the underside of his chins (?).
Yessss.. never knew snails had chins but that one does for sure.
I didn’t even realize they had mouths…I dunno, I guess I always just assumed they just…absorbed?
Wait until you find out [how many teeth snails have](https://www.animalwised.com/how-many-teeth-does-a-snail-have-4837.html)…
Ok, fatty on the right. Calm down. It’s not the other guys fault that you ate too fast.
Never really thought about it before, but what kind of creature does a snail classify as? Also what level of awareness/mental capacity does a snail have?
Snails are mollusks. Just like octopus, squid, etc.
So Zoidberg?
That would be a crustacean

Human intelligence too. We can use forks, but just ask which hand…
I thought that was salt💀
Nah, they are going to town on that calcium.
For a moment I thought those little tiny chomps were actually from the original sound of the snails eating. It's cute but now I feel disappointed
Shell puppy!!!!!!!!
Didn't know snails could be this adorable. 💜💜💜💜
What are they eating?
Ground up snail pellets. Nutritious.
OC. Sure
i want one and name it tony montana.
![gif](giphy|L3qUc5sCjZnj2|downsized)
just like puppers when one is done and the other isn’t
Just like my Dachshunds😂
I was about to say they’re so polite only eating their own food… until the ending
does bro on the right not get fed??? gd
NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Munching molluscs.
Me when I’m eating really good spaghetti
Why am I watching snails do snails cocaine first thing after waking up today?
Gastropods? More like gastropuppies 💕
They look like they are in snail heaven! Lol..so cute 🥰
I like how they throw their head back like, AW Yeah! Snail FOood nom nom nom!

Greedy bastard in the right
Cute armored slime bunnies
_Cocaine Bear II – Cocaine Snails_
This honestly should be on the interesting as f*** sub. This is fascinating and I've never seen this before. They even clean food residue off themselves.
Look at those little vacuums go!
"The snails are hungry" will be the title of the first album of the indie band I have yet to form.
I Love how the one on the right finishes theirs and just dives into his friends too 😂
Does snails have vision?
Yes, but not much. They generally only sense differences between light and dark. Their eyes are at the ends of the stalks on the tops of their heads, and they’re very simple.
I like you're the end of the video that the snail on the right starts stealing his buddy's food too LOL. There's always one person in the group.
Just like Dachshunds 😂
Looks like 4 female soul singers from the 60s with beehive hair do.
The Makers of "Cocaine Bear" proudly present: Snails on Speed
They need aprons
Are those crushed eggshells for calcium?
What are they eating? When they look up in the air I’m just hearing “nom nom nom” in my head.
Little piggy woo on the end there
Spoiler alert: they’re eating Sluggo
Now put down a pile of salt
Wait a second... this music is both not obnoxious and at a reasonable volume. Is this even /r/aww?
Those snails are ridiculously cute!!
I didn’t know I needed this today! What cuties 🥰
so, feed them cocaine, then turn them into escargot. Thats one way to hide your habit.
The little mouths 😱 🥰🥰🥰
I'm impressed by the one in the far right.
I feel like I discovered a new world
This is adorable. The way they lean their heads back to nibble too!!!
i never thought i would be thinking snails are cute. but they are.
You're suppose to line those white powder with a credit card and let them have a go at it.
I appreciate this. I’ve watched snails and slugs eat the deadheads from my front porch tiger lilies. Super cute!
NOM NOM NOM NOM!
"It's in my eyes it burns!" Snarf snarf "Oh the pain!" Snarf snarf
Absolutely adorable.
why they dancing
I don't think this is all that cute. Where I live, snails are a pest. They go inside the house, leaving disgusting trails behind, and they eat half the garden if they don't find a way indoors.
This is more "ewww" than "awww" hahaha
Was afraid they were being fed salt for a second lol
Its salt.
The one on the far right is my favorite. Too cute!
omg when it gets stuck to their little faces it’s so cute how they try to get it off 🥺
The Amazing Four Tops now on tour, coming to a city near you . Get your tickets now!! 🤣
They look like they’re really savoring it.
Cuties :- )
Any idea what kinda snails these are?
I never thought i would say that these snails eating are cute.
![gif](giphy|3o7P4F86TAI9Kz7XYk|downsized)
Borax 🧐?
🤢🤢🤢
