Snails are monoecious organisms, meaning they have both male and female reproductive organs.
They produce both sperm and eggs. However most cannot reproduce alone. They must mate
with another snail and both snails have the ability to produce eggs. All snails mature at different
ages, ranging from 6 months to 5 years (Snail World).

The species Discus patulus is understudied, so it is unknown at this point in time the exact details
of its reproduction.
