What a brilliant idea Daniel - may do that! How quickly do slugs grow?
Any idea where they pick up parasites? For example, I think sheep are a hoste to a parasite that is transmitted through a type of snail (liver fluke?), but these things are pretty species specific, if my memory serves. For example, it is recommended to graze sheep on horse pasture, as they pick up various horse parasites, which are then killed while passing through the sheep......I do wonder what (if any) british (or european) parasites would actually harm a Mexican Axi? Does anyone have any specific knowledge on this?
Fascinating!
