Will they be hatched or frozen?
I wonder if the ova colour bears any relation to the snail colour inside?

These are being incubated.
Generally pale ova indicate infertility - although that is by no means a rule. Ova in damp substrate tend to leach their colour - also toward the end of their incubation period.

Unless I miscounted quite horribly. Theres no wonder fulica is a pest species.
