The egg size and weight of the gray field slug, Deroceras reticulatum Muller, was mm and 3.3 mg at , respectively. Its weight increased from newly laid eggs to adults for 17 weeks at four temperature regimes and was heaviest at , followed by 24, 16 and . Likewise, hatching rate of the egg batches was highest with 95% at , followed by 24, 16 and with significant differences. The number of eggs in the batches was increased with 20 at while it was only 10 at . The average accumulated egg-laying days was longest with 15 days at while shortest with 9 days at . The range of egg-laying period was shortest with 84-134 days at and longest at . Thus, the total number of eggs laid by adult D. reticulatum was highest with 217 at and lowest with 105 at . The egg period was 12-19 days while the juvenile period and adult longevity were 51-68 days and 85-134 days, respectively. The life span of D. reticulatum from egg to adult was longest with 216 days at , followed by 193 days at , 170 days at and 151 days at . Accordingly, the most favorable temperature for the oviposition, development and longevity of D. reticulatum is .
