Maybe slow release fertilizer in the soil... does the soil have more inside

I don't believe so

Crush it, if it is powdery then it is slow release or if they are squishy and squirting they are snail eggs.

It’s slow releasing fertilizer. Some of them are shiny balls and they put very little in there so you probably won’t notice them.
