Official info I do know is the young follow the parent and this is how it gains a collection of Slime mold for its self and may even die due to explosions from having soft shell. I don't recall if the parent cared if the young followed or not since explosions form the parent kills them in the first place. So I have to agree with Hellwolf00 on diet since they follow parent anyway they may eat what it killed in path of destruction.
