Default wanted-Pink blue snails

If anyone comes across any pink or blue snails in their garden and you are willing to post them please let me know. I will pay P&P.

Here is a picture of the snail they come in many colours but pink and blue are quite rare.

I have been looking for some for ages Sarah. I've had the garden upside down. If I manage to find some I'll save a few for you

Its such a shame really because 5 yrs ago when we first moved here I had so many snails like that in various tanks around the garden including the pink ones there were hundreds back then. I wish I could at least find the yellow ones, but so far no luck, but I'm still looking lol. I have a big area to cover so there could eb some here somewhere.
