Slugs are Mollusks that have lost their shell. Though hermaphroditic (both sexes in the one animal), they stilll need sexual conjunction with another of their kind to become fertilized. [Wasn't that delicately put?] They both exchange material.
The mollusks are important in evolution, for they invented what becomes the skeleton. With a shell, one now has a rigid piece to which one may form muscular attachment.
In closing, you might look up apophallation in a Biology engine or text - a problem that slugs occasionally have.

No, a female is born with all the eggs she will have in her life.

Ovaries produce eggs.
because they want to lay their eggs in the soil as the soil is moist
Camouflage I think
Slugs put chemical clues in the slime they produce, for other slugs to decipher. David George Gordon, author, The Secret World of Slugs and Snails: Life in the Very Slow Lane.
Yes, when the eggs hatch the babies are on there own, hunting and fending for themselves.
are adapted to survive periods of drought by sealing themselves in their shells, but slugs are quite restricted by the amount of water in their environment. ...

Animals that take care of their young produce fewer eggs. e.g. crocodiles. Animals that leave their young to fend for themselves produce numerous eggs. e.g. fish. This is an energy balance. You spend little energy to produce eggs, but spend more energy taking care of your offspring. Conversely, you can spend lots of energy producing many eggs and spend little energy thereafter. It's a numbers game.
Yes they are small white eggs that hatch fairly quickly.
