Hi drummer,

these eggs are definitive no gecko eggs.
You found “only” some eggs of a giant land snail, for sure.

Devon, I have also done an exhaustive Google and Wikipedia lit review and believe you are holding in your hands the ultra rare eggs of a het for carmel motley ghost Tokoloshe! Import me a pair to the states, when they hatch, and we will make Billions (of Zim dollars)!

Lol, i found some "breviceps" eggs, i kept them most ect ect for months, then i started wondering why a whole lot of little slugs were appearing out of nowhere. It took a couple days to sink in...

The other day i actually came upon a ton of little breviceps hatching!!! was an amazing sight....under a rock...a little cavitiy and plenty of these perfect minute breviceps(smaller than peppercorns). I broke my rule and my friend murphy decided he would lay the law down...i nevver had my camera :(

Doubt i will ever witness that again.

Hi,

I also found some strange yellow eggs in my KZN garden. I am reliably informed that they are the eggs of a Giant Land Snail.
