The one year I had a bunch of slug was an unusually hot year here. I am pretty sure either the higher temperature during the year or during one significant part of the egg production was the cause of my slugs. Several So. Cal. breeders had an issue with slugs the same year.

I think breeding the same female year after year with no break might cause the female to lay slugs too, but I have no real knowlege or proof.

I rotate the male through several times more than I used to, I think that helps NOT get slugs.
