Hi i live in UK i found allot of dead snails near a hole ,so i dug it up and found some clear eggs in clusters and separate. But there were some worms near the eggs are they snail eggs or other eggs? or were the worms eating the eggs?

Were the worms earthworms? I don't think earthworms eat snail eggs. I also don't think snail eggs are clear, although snail eggs are found in clusters. Do you know about what size one of the eggs was? That might help narrow down what they are.

Hm, they could be snail eggs. And if they weren't fertile or had gone bad or something, the worms might have been eating the remains of them (worms are scavengers that eat decomposing material).
