Snail Variations

Description

I made a little collage to show the different shell-styles the snails sport here.
These are all Grove Snails (Cepaea nemoralis) except the last one in third row. That's a White Lipped Snail (Cepaea hortensis).
I dunno why they've all different styles but I think it's a bit like a fingerprint. The most common here are the yellow ones with the single black line and the pink ones without black lines.
I didn't include the Burgundy Snail cause I don't wanted to disturb it again.

Which one you like the most?^^
