This has happened quite a few times in the past. That is, if any fecal material accompanied the baby, she likely was trying to have her pre-birth waxy stool when that single baby was inadvertently pushed out as well. Keep an eye on her and watch for the rest of the kids soon. If the baby, which appears to be full term, did not have a mass of egg yolk in the belly or still in the sack on the outside of the belly, you could soak the cage in an attempt to make her think it just rained. This may make her more likely to have those babies. Babies are very easy to push out as opposed to slugs that are relatively dry and sticky. It does seem pretty unlikely that an animal that you had identified as gravid could only have one baby, but that could be a possibility as well. All that being said, unless I knew it was past about the 110 post ovulation shed date, I would just leave her alone and wait.



Good luck!
