PICS - My First Florida Eggs

Last year I acquired a small breeder group of Florida box turtles. Last night one of the females laid her first clutch of 4 fertile eggs for me. These are my first Florida box turtle eggs so I'm excited to see what the hatchlings will look like, but I'll have to wait 2 to 3 months to find out!

Tortoises are venomous right?

Congrats Patrick. Great Pics. It will be hard waiting those 2 to 3 months to see their sweet little faces, but we will be waiting for those first pics.

Way to go Patman! You are doing awesome with the breeding. I remember when you had first posted about your three toed that never laid eggs for some long amount of time now you have eggs and hatchlings every week.
