Hi, happy new year all. On my bit of land in Italy, which I have to dig to plant crops, I am always digging up very young slowworms, many times of course they have been injured by my spade, cut in half etc. Last year in the summer I saw many hunting just after the rain and I could just pick them up. Being so easerly caught means they fall victim to cats and anything else thats hungry.
Often! I would be tempted to bring some of the small ones back to England, but I always manage to resist. They, hatchlings, I found, are very time consuming to feed, hunting teeny slugs every day. Anyway they are so abundant that I can watch them any time I like and as they are on my land, I feel a bit that they are mine anyway. I also turn over lots of eggs, wall lizards I think. They die because I don't know which way up they were, makes gardening sound very destructive doesn't it?
cheers arthur
