MYSTIC SNAIL BREEDING

Hi, are mystic snails hermaphrodite's?

If you mean MYSTERY snail, most species aren't. Mystery snail, along with the term Apple snail are just common names people call the snails. Like I said before, most aren't. If you can post a photo, I can try to help you identify the species and tell you for sure.

Mystery Snail is only one species - Pomacea Bridgesii, which have separate sexes.

You probably have pond snails, which are hermaphroditic and can self-fertilize.

Thats a pond snail if its small. They lay their egg clutches in clear stuff. The eggs are white dots. If you have a sexually mature snail, you may have eggs everywhere.
