Mystery Snail eggs

[corylover5]

I noticed that my large golden mystery snail has laid eggs 4 days in a row now. They are each separate egg clutches. Is this normal/healthy for them? I thought mystery snails only lay eggs once a month but I could be wrong. Thanks in advance

I know next to nothing about mystery snails so I apologize that I can't help, but out of curiosity is it possible shes been near a male, either in your tank or at the store?

I have 3 mystery snails and I know 1 is a male and 1 is a female. I'm not sure about 1 of them though. I also have a Giant Ramshorn snail That is a male.

Ah I'm not sure then. Pardon the language but maybe the male and female are regularly getting busy?

Maybe. But I was just wondering how she was laying eggs every day. I thought even if the eggs are fertilized they took a month to develop before the snail lays them.

I suspect you have two females. Too bad their voices all sound the same...That's still a lot of eggs. Mystery snails can be surprisingly, um, prolific when the urge strikes them.
