Eggs
Posted: 26/07/2012 by kazza

Doing some gardening today, I have come across a clutch of eggs. Two previous summers, I saw my tort laying the eggs, put then in the incubator straight away but unfortunately nothing came of them.

This time, I have no idea how long they have been there, although I would think it was a while as the soil on top had weeds in it and certainly didn't look as if it had been disturbed for a time. Sadly, I think I may have damaged some as 5 of them were cracked but they seemed fresh with very yellow yokes. I have saved 2. What do you think the chances are if I incubate them?

Very slim but you never know until you try, depends on how well insulated and warm they have been kept?
