If its shell hangs slightly away from its body and tentacles look withdrawn inside its shell.
It can be pretty tough to determine whether or not a snail is sleeping, considering they don’t show any obvious signs such as having their eyes closed or snoring. However, there are still a few simple ways that can help you tell whether or not a snail is sleeping:
- The shell may hang away from their body slightly
- Relaxed foot
- Tentacles appear withdrawn a little
It may be easy to assume that the gastropod is dead, but don’t jump to conclusions when you see an immobile snail in the garden — it may just be taking a power nap.
