Slug Passed Over 2 Weeks Later

On May 10, one girl laid 9 eggs. 8 ended up being fertile. Now today, after eating like a beast for 2 weeks, she poops and passes this. Thought it was a big urate at first but upon further inspection it's a slug. I've heard of this happening but it's the first time seeing it happen.

I've had a female pass one slug a week for three weeks straight after laying a clutch of 11 good eggs. It was nerve-wracking for me, watching it happen, but she did end up passing every single one just fine, eating every single week with gusto.

They're durable critters, and capable of dealing with quite a bit.
