Apple snails and mystery snails are different. Apple snails get to be softball size while mystery snails stay smaller. I have an apple snail and an ivory mystery snail, my ivory is a female and I just saw the apple snail mating with her. She has just previously laid two clutches of eggs from my blue mystery snail that has just recently died and the eggs have not hatched yet so I am curious to see if the apple snail will fertilize her or not. I have tried to do research to see if they can even breed or not and have not found anything useful.Wiki User

∙ 9y agoTechnically speaking, there cannot be actual cross-breeding between mystery snails and apple snails. This is because mystery snails are a type of apple snail. Regardless, they should be able to breed with each other.

Where do snails get pregnant?
I assume you mean fresh water snails, like apple snails or mystery snails. These types of snails (fresh water) are usually hermaphrodites, which means they can reproduce with any snail. The snails exchange sperm with each other. Or, occasionally your snail will be self-fertile, and get itself pregnant. If your snail is pregnant, it will lay it's eggs outside of water, like on the rim of the tank. It needs two to three inches to lay it's eggs, and the eggs will have a razor blade like thing somewhere around them to protect them. The eggs look like little bubbles on the side of the fish tank, or like chewing gum! Sometimes they're blue, green, pink, white, or somewhat clear. After your snail lays eggs and the environment is suitable, in a few weeks you'll have some snail babies!
How do garden snails mate?
Snails reproduce the same thing almost everything else does - they mate and lay eggs. Some snails are hermaphrodites, though (have both male and female sexual organs in the same individual), which means that two snails can fertilize each-other.
