Hello everyone! My sulcata tortoise just laid her first clutch of eggs today. There was 9 and I dug them up and put them in incubator now. I understand that they can lay multiple clutches per year normally a few weeks in between each clutch. But does that only happen if she has been bred in between each clutch? I read somewhere that some clutches can be fertile and some infertile. And that she can hold a males sperm for some time. Just a little confused on how many clutches she will lay.
Side note: The male is in a separate pasture and they were together for a few days to mate but they are now separated so she can lay her eggs and relax.
