Pond Snail Eggs Not Hatching!

[connorsbala]

I got 30 pond snails,put 5 in a gallon container and the others in a bucket outside. The ones in the gallon container are inside packed with transparent gel lines filled with eggs and the ones in the bucket outside have a few too. The bucket has a sponge filter running on it. I do water changes on them 3 times a week. I feed the sdnails on cucumber and algae wafers.
My problem is the eggs arent hatching! Im just left with the eggs in the see through line
Anyone know what i can do?
Thanks

Patience is all you need Takes a couple of weeks I think... can't remember exactly You should see tiny dots appearing inside the jelly soon.

Plus for the first 2-3 weeks i couldnt see my babies even though they were there. Once they start getting a colour you will see them.

takes about 4 weeks from the day they are layed.
the first one until they hatch then for the next 3 weeks they are little white dots.

Wow, I WISH mine wouldn't hatch! I can never see them, but they've gotta be in there somewhere cos I'm always being overrun with the pesky buggers in my tank. I take out 40-50 every water change.

It took me about a month to see the little guys crawling around in my breeding tank.

Get some tadpole snails next time. They grow and hatch a lot faster
