Check your gH/gH (hardness) levels. It is likely that your water is too hard or that your temperatures may be wrong. I can't tell you the correct temperatures, since you didn't tell me what kind of snail it is. Also, make sure your snail is receiving a varied diet including flake foods and fresh vegetables such as zucchini, romaine lettuce, spinach and peas. It's possibly suffering from low protein and/or calcium.
For example snails and the Rhinoceros Beetle.
No, the eggs are layed above water and when the baby snails hatch they fall in. from there many baby snails will go into the parents shell for protection. or sometimes on top of the shell. I dont think the parent snails even notice the little ones. often they will push them out of they way to get where they're going, but I've never seen one eat it's young. sources: I breed snails

Aquarium snails are different from regular land snails. All aquatic snails have gills. Just like their land relatives, these snails also have radula(rasping tongue),tentacles, and hard shells.

All insects have an outer shell called the exoskeleton.
