That sounds interesting, especially since it would interact with the air shields. Most of the slimes I have issues keeping inside their corrals are my phosphor/other slime largos, but I now have all of them in the cave section, so all of the air shields on my main ranch are seeming like useless upgrades. Having slimes randomly falling from the sky and threatening the air shields would be awesome as a challenge! Especially if they were pink slimes. I'd be very worried about my largos getting hold of pink plorts.
In Terraria, the Slime Rain spawns all different types of slimes, usually the common greens and a few less-common blues, but there can be rarer slimes raining down as well. To apply that to Slime Rancher would mean you'd mostly have pinks and a few rocks, with maybe some tabbies, booms, honeys and possibly puddles or even golds if you're extremely lucky. Again, though, the obvious issue with this would be Tarr! It would probably be something the player would need to be warned about some time before it starts, so they can set up ponds and stock up on water to combat the inevitable Tarr outbreak.
Those stripes, that tail, that wiggle, wiggle, wiggle.
