Slug Eggs: Clutches #14, 15, & 16

Apparently my slugs (Lehmannia valentiana) are still mating, for I uncovered 3 more clutches of eggs today. I had thought that they would cease mating this late in the year, but it may be that, due to our warm weather, they won't die or hibernate but will continue to feed and reproduce.

Clutch #14 (at least 12 eggs):


Clutch #15 (at least 18 eggs; ignore the ground worm crawling behind them):


Clutch #16 (about 12 eggs?):
