20 Days sounds like the obvious answer 16 days is the correct answer. The snail can go 5 feet each day... and slides back 4 each night. He will get to the 19th foot on the 15th DAY but will slide back to the 15 foot mark on the 15th NIGHT. He will climb 5 feet on the 16th day, reaching the 20 foot mark.
A starfish has tubular feet, which are tube-like. A snail moves on a muscular foot lubricated with slime.
30 days
Snails are nocturnal, so it is probably climbing 3 feet a night and resting in the day,

2 feet
around 11.8 feet
Answer in my opinion 29 days. At the beginning of the 28th day the snail is 27 feet up. The snail crawls up 3 feet and is now at the top of the well but not out. At the beginning of the 29th day, the nail is 28 feet up. He now crawls up 3 feet and is out. This is some question about the interpretation of the problem. At the end of the 28th day, the snail is at top and would crawl out, I think.
16 days

The answer to the riddle is the snail. A snail has a foot but no legs.
It would take 18 minutes for the snail to move 12 feet.

Paua do not actually have feet, they are a species of snail so slide along on a specialized muscle
