My snails have laid pink sacs of eggs three times before, but i always plucked them off and threw them out. now im thinking of keeping these snail eggs in hopes of cultivating them for future uses. this large sac is stick right underneath my hood's lid, so everytime i open the lid i see it. do i need to do anything for these eggs (keep them moist, etc)?

Yes you can leave them where they are. You could also gently remove them and place them in a diy hatchery if you are a control freak like me 
My diy hatchery consisted of 4 strips of styrofoam and a square of plastic craft canvas siliconed together to make a little clutch raft. (www.applesnail.net has lots of ideas in their DIY section) I floated that in a lidded square tupperware. I put that on my light strip so it would stay nice and warm. It took from 13 days for them to hatch IIRC. You'll notice a moldy gross look to the clutch when they are nearing hatching. Ah heck, lemme just post some pictures 
This clutch was mailed to me so it is 2-3 days old in the first pic.
