Finally! The weather suddenly warmed up, and boy did it! As is typical here in Michigan, we went from 50's to 90's in a day! Anyway, the boxy kids finally got to move outside on Saturday. I've been checking in on them of course several times a day. I took a quick look this evening before we went away. We got home about 3 hours later and I took another quick last look.

I couldn't believe my eyes! But yes, there it was, an EGG!!

Sparky is about 6 years old, and I've had her for 3 years. I have no idea how old Spike is, and I've had him for about 1 year. They were together last summer, then hibernated separately, then were just put in the out door enclosure Saturday. I carefully felt around in the dirt, but didn't find anymore.

So, what are the chances this egg will hatch? Any signs I can look for to tell if'n it's viable?
