Hi guys,
I am not familiar with telling the gender of Apple Snails, I've heard it is something to do with a Lump that is there with the Males on the inside of the shell but absent with the Females.

Is there anyway to tell from these photos, or are they too blurred...
The snail had a triangular object connecting the snail to its shell but with gaps each side of the triangle. Would this tell it's gender.

In the first image I have tried to draw on the computer what I saw. Obviously without the white box behind it.
Sorry for the poor picture quality.

Thanks in advance.
