| | | Pond Snail Eggs?
I still havent got round to building my wildlife pond but i have a thriving victorian (square white) sink pond jobbie, with a thriving colony of
Great Pond Snail (Lymnaea stagnalis)
I cant help having a butchers i the pond every day and today noticed all over the rocks, iris leaves and water mint stems (submerged and non submerged) large kind of transparent globs of sluglike jelly?...
Im presuming these are snail eggs? or is it something else?
Dan

Hi  it does sound like snail eggs. I have snails in our little ponds and they lay quite a lot of those eggs. They seem to be able to mate form a quite a young age, too. We have lots of babies now. . | | |
