Our 10 year old Russian tortoise laid 3 beautiful eggs yesterday! The eggs are currently in a HovaBator incubating and looking good :)

Thank you all for the welcomes :). We rescued both the male and female from a neighbor whose dog was terrorizing both Russians in their backyard. The female laid 2 eggs last year (previous family said she never had), but unfortunately they were not fertile. I didn't think they would be since she laid them on top of the ground. This time we watched her dig a hole, lay the eggs, and cover them up like a mother would :). I retrieved them and they are incubating in the Hova-Bator as I type this :). We are very excited! If I can figure out how to attach a video I will as I have one of the eggs being laid on video. Please keep her eggs in your prayers :)

We are in AZ, and I am incubating at 85.5 degrees :)
