Molly's last baby from her 3rd clutch hatched today. I can't believe she produced 14 fertile eggs in one year. What's the record for an eastern, anyway?
Her first clutch was 7 eggs on May 13
Her second clutch was 3 eggs on June 10
Her final clutch was 4 eggs on June 25
Last year she also produced 14 eggs, 8 in one clutch and 6 in the next, but 2 of each clutch were infertile. The year before, she laid 10 eggs, 6 and 4, of which 7 were fertile. She's not even a big turtle.
