I'm not sure, I don't have any experience yet with eggs, I'm just going by what I have read on here.

Where are they now? Can you get pics of them, might help to see if they are ok and worth trying to incubate.

Steve is at work so i cant get pics on here without his phone but will do it later. i will try the egg box and damp kitchen towel till he gets home just in case they are fertile, he will be shocked as we thought she had just gone off her food.

It sounds like you have 2 good eggs, but don't give up on the others until you're positive they are slugs! Good luck.

Make sure you don't tilt them and keep them warm and damp :-)
