Little Jackie

Fertility was non existent this year, but I did manage to produce one little russian tort, a few box turtles, and cooter.

She(incubated for female, but we shall see)finally started eating yesterday.



Little boxes

Cooters

One of my favorite species, but I may part ways with these guys as I have six already.

All beautiful babies!

 

[Tom]

Nice!

Why do you think the fertility was so low for your Russians? Do you brumate them over winter?

Awww so cute. I was wondering the same as Tom

They brumate, but it wasn't just the Russians all the turtles and torts.

We had an odd spring, with record rains. Even got a late start on our garden, but I did move animals around and rebuilt enclosures so stress of moving could've been a factor.

We had a late spring too. My grapevines and Mulberry trees usually start budding in early February here, and I saw nothing on them until Late April this year.

Come to think of it now, my Burmese stars haven't been doing their usual amount of egg laying this summer either...
