Laying Eggs! A very common Slug, also not too interesting to me (because they hardly moves) that I realised I didn't even post them, at least until this one seen laying eggs.

  1. Keep in mind that what is boring for you, is still fascinating for us who never venture into the deep :) Posted 5 years ago
    1. Yes, I know.
      Just pointing out my mind set with regards to this boring slug, also it is not that 'colourful' compared to most others :D

      It's not a good thing, I have to admit as I later came to know, there is a species of Flatworm and a species of Nudibranch that mimics this Warty Slug.

      Have a look at this Nudibranch :

      and this one of a Flatworm :
