Default Garden pests?

My neighbours daughter asked me a question I cannot answer so thought would pose the question here.......do snails have their shells when they are born???

wow now there a good question..
I have seen baby snails with soft shells so i am guessing that they have them but get hard as they get older..

Just like a chicken egg, soft when laid but hardens up practically straight away.
