They don't seem to eat food when raising them if you log off. Have had two starve to death with plenty of sweet veggie cakes on them. One got to be an adolescent, the first one was only a baby though.
Achatina
The Achatina is a massive snail, mostly used for its production of Cementing Paste, or as a pet. This creature produces its paste passively — and quite frequently — so many survivors keep them around their bases. However, its usefulness pretty much ends there, as it cannot attack and moves quite slow. The Achatina must be tamed violently.

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Achatina in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Don't worry about level when you're looking for them. Get any level, even a lvl 25 I got has 156 weight. Considering achatina paste weighs just 0.01. That's 16,500 paste in a level 25. But it will never reach that as you get like 60 paste per hour. Set them to…

But it will never reach that as you get like 60 paste per hour. Set them to wander and feed veggie cakes, once in a while. Veggies cakes last 24 hours+ in real time. So spoil timer is massive, make a cage and put cakes in a feeding trough as that has same spoil timer as the animals inventory. My suggestion tame about 10-20. That way you get anywhere from 600 paste to 1200 paste every hour, and suitably all snails below level 30 but since they're hard to find, swoop any and all snails. On an unrelated note if you want cementing paste and you're not high level enough for veggie cake production, go the south cave(hunter) with a wolf, saber with at least 1500hp. Run around the cave and you will get 10000 chitin. Hope this helps!
Newest update makes them breedable!!

Me: Obese.
Achatina: Dammit.
LET IT SHIT! FREE SPIRIT! No, seriously, it's shit gives you Cementing Paste.
Tame an army and go fight gigas with nothing but snails. I bet snails will win. R.I.P gigas.
Dont tame this snail drop it in your base and let it poop cementing paste
You don't have to tame them to make paste. 1. KO them 2. While unconscious build "Trump's wall" around them 3. They'll create cementing paste when they wake. No cakes involved.
Let them starve to tame then you have a better percentage to tame
TAME NEXT TO WATER OR IT WILL DIE SLOWLY!!!!!!!!!!!!
This creature is by far the most dangerous, not only does is crawl up to 1mph it's has no way to attack....and the worst part is.....it looks retarded
Vegetable cake count is off. Taming bar randomly losses efficiency from timer on the cakes. Tamed a level 50 which calls for 11 cake and it actually took 16.
Great for pvp they can counter most flyers in combat
How do you get out
