RE: M. emys clutch size record?
Thanks for posting Scott. I just stumbled on this thread and thought I'd update you. There were 4 eggs damaged beyond repair so we have 70 in the incubator. We had to spark up another incubator just to hold this one clutch. The next biggest clutch from this female was 36 so this was a huge shock. We were at a loss for words. You never saw 4 more puzzled faces as the eggs kept coming. Send good thoughts...Jerry Novak

Hey Jerry, Welcome to TortoiseForum. I was so exciting when I saw you opened the nest. My hands were shaking when I held those eggs. Please keep us updated for those eggs.

Wow what would you do if they were all fertile? I still can't believe the huge amount!
