I have two questions that I am curious about.
The first is, will a female tort lay eggs, even if they aren't fertile and no contact with a male? I know birds do, so I was wondering about torts.
The second is, has anyone ever tried a "natural" birth? What I mean is, most people take the eggs and place them in an incubator and that probably will give you the highest chance of the eggs actually hatching. But has anyone ever just let the eggs go as if they were in nature? Obviously you would have to have the right climate and everything, but just wondering if there is a reason this isn't done more.
