Back in August I found 7 hatchling red-footed tortoises unexpectedly in my indoor tortoise pen. The adults must have laid the eggs around February/March in their nesting box. I had been spraying the nest box with water in the off chance that there were eggs buried. That was the only care they received. I just walked in the tortoise pen tonight and saw an extra tortoise . . . upon searching the nest box I found 5 more! I found the 7th the next evening wondering around the large enclosure. Woohoo!
Found some more eggs tonight . . . made me think to post this!
