How long does it take slug eggs to hatch?

Slug eggs usually take about a week to hatch although they can stay in the ground for 100 days until the temperature and humidity get just right. They are clear but may get cloudy before hatching. Any age of slugs can lay eggs but the older ones lay more. Slugs do not raise their young and may eat them. To prevent this separate them from the eggs. Slugs do not have genders so any slug can lay eggs. I've hatched one generation and one just layed more so I am expecting more soon.
