Turbo snails laying eggs...

I have 2 turbo snails in my FOWLR and woke up this morning to at least a half dozen tiny baby snails on my back wall. Is this normal to have them lay eggs or give birth? I'm assuming there is really no harm in them right now since they are the size of a pen head.

It's normal and no harm will come of it. They will eventually disappear, or you can scrape them off. They usually won't survive and hatch in our tanks.

I'm not saying they can't be turbos, but I suspect that what you're actually seeing are Collonista snails...they're often mistaken for "baby turbos", and are definitely more common. This is especially true since you saw them in the AM, as they likely hadn't gone into hiding for the day.
