North Dakota fish keeper Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 How long does it take for a female mystery snail to lay a clutch of eggs? Like the actual egg laying process? I have a female that I think is ready to do so......she is crawling on the underside of the lid, and she never does that. Was wondering if/when she starts to lay eggs, how long does it take to complete her clutch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 It depends on the size of the clutch. I’ve seen them dime size and inches long. On average mine take from 1-3 hours to complete the process. They go into an almost trance and nothing stops them. It is so fascinating to see the eggs slide down and be placed with such precision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon p Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 (edited) I don’t even really notice for and avg size clutch. How you want her to lay eggs? If so let the water level drop about an 1-1.5 inches. Mine lay and hatch if they are on the glass Edited March 12, 2022 by Brandon p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
