So my attempt to hatch the slug eggs has been successful! I have babies!
Here are two I found this morning.


and a teeny tiny one!

They are being kept in a giant glass cookie jar. I have a layer of garden soil (where I found them) and just toss in Romaine lettuce and an occasional misting.
As of last night the last of my adults died. But from what I can tell I have a metric crap ton of babies.
I don't quite know what to do with them now. My kids lost interest when I kept chirping at them to "be careful! Touch soft! Not that one!"
I can't stick them back outside because it has since snowed and that would be instant death. So I guess I am keeping them for a while.
