Some kid found turtle eggs, so I don't know if they will hatch. But I was wondering what the temp is to keep them at, Humidity? and how many days? just wondering, any information would be great, I have them kinda set up like my leopard geckos, minus the light, so it is the same temp as outside, a little lower. Oh in case it matters I'm in Ohio, Northeast Ohio. I just wish the kid would have left them there and not tried to take them home. His dad caught him. so I would like to hatch them, and then relase them. Any help is great, thank you sooooo much, ~Jennie~

So you are incubating leopard gecko eggs too? If so you can just copy what you did with them and apply it with the turtle eggs. A good temp would be around 80 and humidity about 75%.

I use to have a collection of Leopard Geckos that I bred, but have sold them.

Sorry forgot to tell you about how long it will take for them to hatch. Depending on the temp, (higher temps hatch them faster) it should take anywhere from 30-90 days. Usually about a month and a half though.
Good Luck,
Chris

Im sure if youve incubated reptile eggs before, you know the importance of keeping them upright throughout development. If this kid dug them up, i doubt they wouldve remained in the upright position. Hopefully some will survive, but dont blame yourself if they dont.
