Title: White/pink eggs
Post by: Plocket on July 08, 2004, 15:32:17
Whilst digging today, between showers, I came across a clump of small white/pink eggs - each egg measured approximately 3 mm in diameter. I am not a bug fan but would be grateful to anyone who could suggest what these eggs might hatch into.

Thank you.

Thanks for the link Doris - could well be slugs. I think I will leave them out for the birds - I might be mean but I don't really need any more slugs in my garden!
