The Eggs of Apple Snail on the Rock of Lake - Nature 145

When we visit lake by the capitol of our city, we saw plenty of pink things like worms around the lake.

We took pictures, and search through Google. The result said that they are eggs of Apple snails.

In an intriguing behavior, Apple snails deposit their eggs on diverse surfaces above the water's edge, including:
- rocks
- plants
- pipes
- and man-made structures

In the one cluster (worm- like) of Apple Snail's eggs may have hundred to thousand eggs individual. The incubation period for the eggs is approximately 7 to 14 days, contingent on the temperature.

  6. What a fascinating discovery! Apple snails’ vibrant egg clusters are such an intriguing sight, and it’s interesting to learn how they choose surfaces above the water to lay their eggs. It’s always a reminder of the hidden life happening around us, especially in natural spots like lakes. These snails’ rapid reproduction can have significant ecological impacts, so it's essential to stay aware of their presence. Thanks for sharing this unique observation!
