    Snail Eggs?

    Ok this may be me being really stupid, but i didnt know that snails lay eggs. I guess thinking about it logically they must do and its obvious. But to be honest ive never gave it much thought. I realised today when i went out to check the veggies. There was a snail in my container, and i tried to pull him off but he was stuck so i put a spade into the soil and leavered him out. When he came up there were lots of little white balls stuck to him.....or rather her. lol. So i had to throw him over the fence in a very pathetic girly way.

      or give them to chickens its like caviar to them and very satisfying to know they wont be hatching into slugs/snails

        yep!
        paint some, and see for yourself. I know my own snails ... they are the type "Chanel Rouge Noir"

          Snails are both 'him' and 'her' so any 2 can tango (often mutually).....
