Just found a batch of eggs, all together, in with my Pancake Slugs (02-8-05) they were only partially burried around some moss, I have moved the eggs into a small container..I will get a pic of the eggs later, hopefully they will hatch, I will keep a record of how long they take to hatch etc. here if all goes well with them  |

Oo err, they are kind odd looking aren't they, are they the first slug eggs you have seen? They certainly are mine. They look big? Or is it just highly zoomed?

I have seen what I suspect are slugs eggs in the wild, they were clumped together also...They arent that big, thery're bigger than the Caracolus egg's though, the picture's zoomed in |

Tonight I noticed the eggs have started to hatch, theres several baby pancake slugs amongst the eggs, Im sure the rest of the eggs will now hatch very soon, they took 15 days to start hatching

Leave the babies in with the eggs Kevin. They eat the empty egg cases before moving out into the tank.

Hey, you forgot pics! ;D (Btw, are you going to sell them? Me want, getting much better at touching now ;D) Its not worth taking pics at the moment, they look just like eggs...When they move away from the egg clutch it will be easier to see them and take pics Also yes I will probably sell some of them |

Yes, they all sat on the egg mass, and didn't move away until they had eaten it all! |
