Snails grow their shells from the calcium in their bodies. It is secreted out of the mantle of the snail. There shells grow like our fingernails do.
Yes, ALL snails have shells that grow with them. The mantle deposits Calcium carbonate in layers, the grain of a snails shell is the result of this action.
