My big female just finished burying 8 eggs. This is 2 weeks earlier than usual. It was real summer like the past few days. She usually lays anyway from 5-9 eggs with another clutch about 2 weeks later. They are all in a large outdoor pen with fish pond and stream that is heavily planted and has logs leaf piles etc. There are 1 adult male 2 adult females and various sized youngsters from 5 years old down to yearlings. They stay outside year round.

We haven't had any egg laying activity here in central VA yet, although I think tonight or tomorrow that may change....At least two of the girls here are gravid, and one is marching around the enclosure non-stop.
