Hello all:
I usually spend my time on the box turtle forum, but this morning I salvaged some eggs from a female river cooter that had been hit and killed by a car. This occurred adjacent to a park, and I have already arranged with the park staff to release any of the hatchlings.

I'm wondering if any of you have experience with egg incubation of this species and can give me info on incubation temperature ranges and time period.

I have plenty of experience with Eastern box turtle eggs and own a couple of Hovabators, so I'm lacking equipment.

Thanks in advance!

StephF
