Delcore's Garden Slug

The Delcore's Garden Slug, or simply Garden Slug, is a common land mollusk found in well, gardens. They are usually orange and brown. Most of these are less than 5 inches long. The biggest one I've found was 5" long. He is "King Lamothius" and is a big slug. when he is in resting mode, he is bigger than all the other slugs in the tank. 
Slugs are very plentiful, and are easily found. Find them after a good soaking rain, and or after sundown. They feed at night or after rain. they seem to like clover the most, but will eat grass and weeds. I've also found them on my plantains, hosta, and at the base of trees. They are also pretty common inside rotting tree stumps. They have many hiding places that they use to sleep for the day, or to stay out of the heat. Slugs are solitary creatures in the wild, but after rains, feeding time, and if you're raising a few; they can easily go with making friendships with other slugs. 
Slugs also eat more than just your plants. They will also help you out if you have decaying skin. A slug I have likes to eat dead skin from my finger, which is helpful to me and it. Its said they will also eat decaying meat. Basically, slugs are scavengers and will eat whatever is available. 
Want to raise a slug? Its actually quite easy! Below is an article on how to raise one, or several. They live months to years in the wild, and possibly longer in captivity. They are not picky on their environment, and need little care.
