Yeah, down here in Florida all of them are all black (make sense?!). Look like rotting banana peels, but they're pretty cool.

Hmmm...

I wonder why they would be all-black in Florida? Its not like they need to warm up faster than the ones up here? Nature is cool.

How on EARTH does one "play" with a slug??? Especially one that size?????
They don't gross me out, but somehow I can't see me playing with them. Must be a "younger generation" thing?
