  1. If anyone knows please let me know. Should I identify the eggs in the species identification section? Posted 6 years ago
    1. If you are sure of the identity of the snail, it seems okay to go ahead and add an ID. I checked other photos of eggs, and that is the trend that I detected. Posted 6 years ago
