Protecting slow-worm reproduction in compost?
"Houston" wrote ...
What time of year do slow-worms produce young? Today, turning compost
heap, I came across several large ones; and unusually, two coiled
together. Didn't want to disturb nest - if they have such a thing - as
they don't seem so common as a few years back. Are youngsters bornlive or
as eggs?
Any pointers appreciated.
I know it's BBC Wales but lots of stuff here...
