Hi everyone newbie here! I got the surprise of a lifetime the other day! My daughters box turtle “Jack” laid eggs! (I completely forgot turtles laid eggs and was trying hard to convince my 3rd old her boy turtle was a girl and laid eggs like her chickens ?)
Well now “jack “ 1st laid 2 eggs 1 was opened and the other was slightly dented. I marked said dented egg an placed in a contain pitting soil and watered it to moist. At 82 degrees. Two days go by jack gives me 2 more eggs both pretty dented again marked an placed with other egg.
Do they normally lay more eggs in one sitting or do they spread them out?
Are the fertile ? She’s by herself ? We’ve had her for about 7 months.
Are dented eggs ok?
How do I tail if she will have more ??
**i have no clue what I’m doing, lol I have a farm and turtle hatching wasnt on my plan. But it’s so exciting ***
