Achatinids are nocturnal forest dwellers, but can adapt to disturbed habitats.
They prefer concealed habitats, and if overcrowding occurs, they may colonize more open habitats.
During periods of high humidity, achatinids are more active, but individuals being found during broad daylight are most likely due to high population density.

Eggs of achatinids are normally laid in the soil, but can be found under leaves or rocks.
They produce as many as 40 eggs, which are yellow in color with dark blotches, and their incubation period is about 40 days.
