    Default Caught our snails mating...

    We have, now we know, mom and dad mystery snails and caught them hanky-panky-ing on the wall this morning! Whoo-hoo...babies?!

    How long before she lays the eggs and it's two-three weeks for hatching, correct?

    Thank you!

    Thank you for the link!

    All the info I read this morning was informative, but didn't say how soon after mating would she be laying the eggs.

    This link, if I understood the info. correctly, said the laying would be every 4-7 days for a few weeks.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong. We don't want to miss this opportunity!

    Thanks!

    Tee-hee-hee! An X-rated show, huh? Next time, maybe they'll know to go behind a plant. Seriously, congrats! Unless you don't want snails, then -- oops! Sounds like you're looking forward to seeing the little ones ...
