They WILL be larger and carrying slugs does not take as much out of a female as do eggs. "Slug-girls" should snap back quickly.

There is no pattern to slugs that I have found. There are MANY theories -- but even more exceptions to those theories. Your are just as likely to have almost no slugs next season -- total CRAP-SHOOT!!!!

Better luck next season.
