The mother then copulates with her sons within three of four days of laying the eggs, after which the sons die rather quickly. ( Now what if this could happen with humans.. we could all create our ideal husbands!!! :)
* SNAILS have 14175 teeth laid along 135 rows on their tongue. ( Who has time to count these things out!?)
