We have two southern painted turtles that we raised from quarter sized babies in 2002. We never provided them with a sandy substrate to avoid the potential for eggs. When we woke up this morning the bottom of the tank had five decent sized eggs in it. We have no idea what to do now. The male ended up eating one of the eggs (that's how we noticed them in the first place) but we removed the others and placed them in a container with tank water. What do we do next??? Please help!!
