What kinds of shells do your purple pinchers prefer? So far mine have worn magpie shells and those green turbos. Poor me, whenever i buy a shell i think looks cool they never pick it.

In captivity PPs tend to prefer most lightweight turbos and have a habit of refusing other shells. They also need a round opening that they can fit through and the correct spiral shape
