Afternoon gang. Missed part of a show I really wanted to see this morning because of the Synagogue murders. I was watching a filler show waiting for the show on PBS to start and the news break went right through the hour change and I missed 10mins before I realized what time it was.

It was a show on snail farming,and I'm sure that part covered how they were raised, which is what I was interested in. Found a bunch a few years back, but knowing next to nothing about raising them, they all eventually died. Never even tried eating one.

I'd watch snail farming. Sounds pretty neat. I wonder how they have babies and what they look like.

I wouldn't eat them. There some the best fish bait you can find. They stiffen up underwater and cling to a hook pretty good. Plus they last in a bucket.

Escargot....properly prepared in a fine restaraunt.

Gooood eatin.

Many people have gotten deadly parasites trying to eat them. I'd advise against that if you don't know what your doing.

I've lived this long without eating snails, I think I go the rest of my life.

Biggest snail I ever saw was on the banks of the Guadalupe, it was munching on a dog turd.
No thanks on the escargot.

Well, I picked up some information from the show. The snails they were raising shoot a dart into their potential mate (they are hermaphrodites, BTW,) which was interesting, they said you could see the dart sticking out of their necks. Then they lay the eggs in a trench and cover them with soil. They are just getting into marketing snail caviar. They had about 100,000 snails during filming. They supply a lot of restaurants in the state ( I want to say Massachusetts?)

In France, all the snails are wild harvested, because noone has figured out how to raise them. I believe there is one guy here in Texas raising these local snails, but he is extremely secretive about how. He too, supplies restaurants.

I gathered about 40 from a house I was working on. I didn't eat any, because I was trying different things with different groups, and I wanted to have a good base to work with. I've eaten snails before, and as a matter of fact, have a can right now. Someday, I'll buy the can/ shells and get fancy.

Too closely related to these monsters which I've killed hundreds in Washington, they are said to be edible too:

Catfish would tear those Basturds up.

I have a bad habit of doing that myself with my phone. Lost a couple in last few years cause I "set them down".

I did it once with a Thompson/Center Contender in .44 Mag.

Helix snails are Republicans, slugs are Demon Crats. I've been an adventurous eater for a long time. Ate a lot of stuff, but it took me a looooong time to finally man up and try escargot.

The local Helix snails look just like the French ones in the store, just about 1/3 smaller than them.
