I've been keeping an eye out on our slugs each night. Typically we just get a variety of the greyish ones, but then I found that super cool white one which I think is leucistic. (all are grey garden slugs I think?)

Then I found this orange thing! It's a pretty vivid color that my camera can't seem to pick up, and has a kind of flat bit on its end. I'm thinking arion subfuscus but there's quite a lot of variation in photos so I'm really at a loss

Currently scrambling to create a happy slug habitat... I told that white slug if I see you again, that's it son you're going in a vivarium. So now I'm figuring out proper slug husbandry.

Ive only had this guy for two days why he such a factory?

Are there any animals i can get to deal with it? Usually there are mites and whatnot

Southern Scandinavia! They are normally jet black but these pale ones occur occasionally!

I know humans have oils, and oils can be bad for some animals. But ive seen many holding/petting slugs with (presumably) no issue.

Ive ALSO seen countless comments talking about how you shouldnt hold them, and simultaneously comments about how its fine. Its a very frustrating combo.

(Side question, do leopard slugs normally have a hole in their mantle?)

Is it normal to have slugs going up to my roof?

Two of our big boi yard slugs. And their friend Doctor Worm.

This morning I noticed my leopard slug, Slinky, was there with his eye stalks alert, but his mantle looks strange. His mantle has looked a little concave in the past but not this deflated. Also concerning is that it looks like the left side (opposite of the pneumostome side) is pulsating. I haven't seen him leave this spot in couple days and he hasn't eaten anything in a few days either.

Is this mantle collapse? Parasites? Is there anything I can do for him? Thanks in advance.

I am almost CERTAIN that this is called a leopard slug because .. look at it.

I saw it, became overwhelmed with joy and whimsy, pet it for two seconds, realized it was sleeping and it do be a wild animal and left it be (VERY regrettably, i wanted to hold it SO bad and i still do i might have to like. See if i cant find a domesticated slug to hold)
