Saturday July 1st
I got home from work at around ten pm and checked my turtles before I ate dinner and noticed the hi yellow female on the side of the enclosure that she usually is not. I watched her awhile and soon realized she was digging a nest. I ran inside and got my video camera and a clip on light and I taped her having 5 eggs.
This whole event lasted until about three am. I guess I got about 30 mins of digging, the whole egg laying(1hr) and 30 mins of burying them. About and hour and a half of film total. I plan on editing it down to a shorter version and then somehow putting it online for ya'll to see! YAY!
After she covered the hole and went to bed I dug the eggs up and put them in the incubator with the roadkill rescue egg and the nine leopard gecko eggs I already had.
I was SO excited!

Congrats!!!! It never gets old! I had a female lay 3 2 nights ago and it still gives me chills to see it happen after all these years. Good luck with the eggs.
That's so great! What a joy to get to watch the whole thing.

It's always still a thrill, as is seeing them hatch and even seeing a box turtle in the wild! www.chelonia.org It is called the World Chelonian Trust. They will publish video, and they are hurting for some new material. The only problem is, they don't move on things very quickly.
