Hi Susan, welcome to the forum from another UK member.
I'm sorry I can't answer your question but I'm sure an experienced breeder will be along soon.
Hope you have success with some eggs.

(You may get more answers if you post your question in the Tortoise Breeding section
or a search about incubation periods may help)

Yes it takes a while.
I don't know what I'd do without this site, I have learned and still am learning so much!

I have not yet hatched my own, but have read many posts of eggs still hatching way after their time and to not give up until it is obvious that they have gone bad.

Hi Susan, and welcome to the Forum!

Wait a while. They usually take about 3 months.

Hello, Susan, and a very warm welcome to Tortoise forum.
Just wait and wait and wait!!!!!
Until it becomes impossible, it is possible, so patience, as so often with tortoises, is the key.
