Found this Slug in a flower-pot in my greenhouse today. What is the little cluster on its side?

Hello, Roger!

Looks like baby slugs :D. If found here in my garden I would call them
Limax maximus (also known as 'Leopard slug')). The big one also seems to be a
Limax, but I have never seen such a light one (
L. cinereoniger is nearly black here).

Thanks Juergen
I'll have to take them out "walkies" tomorrow...one way trip.
Nice short article about them in Wikipedia....I'm glad we don't have to go through "Apophallation" process...sound a bit.....Argh:o:(.
Regards Roger
