To not let DD back in her room tonight? Freaked out.... what is this?

[tastylancs]

DH just gone away for three days, otherwise he would talk me down I’m sure. But right now it’s just me and the DC and I’ve opened DDs room to discover this.... nest? Chrysalis? It’s about 5cm x 3cm. Help!

Sorry just seen size, from the pic it looks much bigger!!

I am wondering if it is a Death Watch Beetle assuming a kind of impressive yoga pose.....legs tucked under, just hanging on by its mandibles!
Get a Tupperware or large jar and a piece of card....cover and slide.

Loving this thread!!! dont go asking Chris Packham too quickly or fun will be over!

I have put in a google image search

Came up as being an igneous rock!

It's probably not correct!

Looks like some kind of snail cocoon or something.

Roman snail looks like George Clooney compared to my guest. Definitely not sadly.

This thread is reminding me of the poster who though she'd found drugs in her sons room and was instantly advised to "lick it". Any chance it's a smint OP?

One of my all time favourites.

Allabitmuch it takes me all my courage to open the door!!

Can't see the second and third pictures.

But the first picture is hideous.

Looks like a spiders nest to me

That is so not a snail.

Are you still alive OP?

How come you're all form Lancashire?

And why is everyone saying tis a snail???

I'm near to you but will NOT be coming over !

Is it breathing?

from Lancashire, obv

it is a snail, not tis

Can't see 2nd and 3rd picture either. Could someone that can see them repost them please? I think it has something to do with the 'phone app.

Its a moth thats asleep. Just move it.

I laughed so much at 'omfg it's got a face ' and the coughed up hairbally snail stuck to the loo pan.

Don’t snail usually leave a sticky, slimy trail? BTW, I can also only see one picture.

Leighaj can you see the photo? Welcome advice from your family member.

Another vote for fuck-ugly snail here.

You need to poke it, OP. You can’t just leave us hanging.

*snails! 🐌

Hopefully this picture will work and show why I think it’s a snail!

t doesn't need a towel - FFS you'll be giving it a guest soap next.

Pmsl

Snail! You can see it stuck to the wall. Pick it off.

What’s sticking out of it on the right hand side? Hair? Feelers?! Or is it a mark on the wall?
