Hello,
I have an Eastern Box turtle. Some kids in the neighborhood found her, she was missing a foot and has some shell damage, so my boyfriend and I decided to take her in. At the time, we thought she was a boy, but after witnessing her eating her own eggs, we soon changed our minds about her sex.
Since then, we have evidence that she has laid atleast 2 other batches (2ish eggs at a time) of eggs, and has eaten them all. The batch layings have been about a week apart.
Is this normal???
