@cybermoomoo2 it's not like it's a bad thing. People in other countries eat fried spiders, and whole rats, and raw oysters. So when it comes down to it, id be willing to bet you couldn't live off of the land. Oh, and by the way. I also eat deer. And cow. And moose. And fish. And rabbit. And hog. And pig. And chicken. And I've tried squirrel. I prefer wild game, over mcdonalds and burgerking ANY DAY. I'm trying to LOSE WEIGHT. Not end up OBESE like the rest of America.
Thats disgusting. Why in the fuck would I eat them? They had baby turtles in them. I cried when they died. Myob stop tryn to get something started. What part of preserving in ALCOHOL didn't you get. Hello that's rubbing alcohol.
I didn't dig them up. We caught 8 adult turtles to eat. And as we were killing and skinning them, 4 or 5 were females. We called our local pet store and they told us which eggs were fertile and what to do. I have never eaten turlte. But I will try it. They were all soft shell aquatic turtles. I have no intentions on eating the babies. We just like to live off the land.
Much longer it could be? I've been doing a lot of research. I want to make sure I'm taking proper care of them. I've read thAt it can take 45-90 days. I just wanted a more precise date lol.
My husband and I caught a bunch of turtles for eating, and 4 or 5 of them were female! We kept the eggs, which was 65, I just did some candling today! It was shockingly exciting! Because it's difficult to uncover the moist sand and there are so many, I've only candles about 15 and 7 are definitely fertile. They have veins and a shadow. It was so heart warming for me! (I'm a chick that loves the baby things lol) they are 3 weeks old. Soft-shell turtles. I can't wait! Would you happen to know how
@1bobeecox Where did you get the eggs? Digging from the sand or what .....? Candling to see veins and a shadow, the egg is probably a few weeks after being laid. How long it takes for the eggs to hatch varies from species to species and would depend on the incubation temperature. Good luck!
@effectos86 First of all, you gotta make sure if the eggs are fertile; if there's been no male turtle around, the eggs must be sterile. If you found the eggs in water and had no idea how long they had been laid, it's very likely the eggs cannot be fertilised due to suffocation.
Next, you should lay the eggs half-buried in some soil which must kept moist but not water-logged. Remember not to turn the eggs around or lay them upside down. You may mark the top (the side facing upward)
@jayr191360 Well... I believe the eggs laying intervals depend on many factors like age, health, climate and food, etc. My female Reeves' turtle is rather young but she laid three clutches of eggs this summer (the first one in May and two more in June) and two more clutches last month. The first clutch of eggs were all smashed because of lack of preparation. The next two clutches took nine to ten weeks to hatch. The clutches laid in October are being incubated. More videos to come!

@coolmedownimfireburn They'll normally hatch on their own! Better not to interfere unless necessary.
