    We have 10 tortoise eggs! Digger laid 6 (healthy) eggs yesterday. Fred (yes, she is a female) laid 4 this afternoon. I took a video of Digger laying her eggs yesterday! Its a total of 8 min, if you want to cheat, the eggs are laid at the following times - 0:10; 2:57; 4:10; 6:58; and 7:50)
    The mama tortoises were my dad's when he was a kid. Its so special to still have this legacy!
    California Desert Tortoises are an endangered species!

    y’all it’s not a dead baby, it’s just an infertile egg that got cracked cause those usually have thinner shells. i was sad at first too but it’s just an infertile egg cause if it was a real dead baby then there would be blood and a lil tortoise and there was just the yolk :) don’t feel bad

    Whoaaaa, she knew exactly where the egg was with her foot and moved it out of the way, that was pretty cool.

    Hmmmm. That sunny side up egg caught me by surprise. I wonder what happened to the shell. Sometimes our chickens lay eggs that come out with a rubbery shell - but I have never seen an egg come out so ready for the pan.

  • @5_Roots
    @5_Roots  12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    you are correct - but keep in mind that the temerature of incubation will determine the sex of the egg. If you are going to keep them, I recommend adjusting the temperature to make sure you get females. As males age they get terrotorial and will fight. For females, I would shoot for about 86 degrees. I have 25 years experience raising California Desert Tortoises, and I can confirm that every clutch we have incbated has ended up the same gender.

    wow how amazing especially that they can,t see the eggs but they move them away each time with their foot . It takes them a long time as they lay around 20 eggs or more at one laying.. and were is Mr. Turtle while she is going through all this?

    I thank you for this educational video. The mother turtle knows that she needs move the egg away from the place she will lay the second egg.
    I wonder when the shell is formed. Is it formed right before it was layed on the sand hole. Or a long time before the mother lay the egg. Thank you. Jung Jing.

    If the egg shell got broken inside of the turtle's body, it will cause egg binding, a painful disease for the upcoming eggs. The binded eggs need to be surgically removed, if she dosen't have that kind of surgery, she will die

    San Diego is about 80f degrees right now.They grow to beabout 14 inches long. They eat vegetables and plants. The eggs are currently incubated at 95f degrees, should hatch any day now.
    Tortoises can withstand high heat if they have shade and lots of water.

    • @rynellnunez5480
      @rynellnunez5480 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      We still have males present. But yes, they can be fertile for years after being separated from a male.

    • @turtletrooperblue
      @turtletrooperblue 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      ***** Okay let me reword this, do tortoises lay unfertile eggs every year? Like female water turtles lay unfertile eggs multiple times a year. Like a woman has a period every month a female water turtle lays unfertile eggs without males present. They lay eggs till they die basically so what I'm asking is do female tortoises lay unfertile eggs every year or so as well till they die?

    We generally keep the eggs in the incubator at 85 degrees. We had one clutch hatch from the ground, but they were all sickly and did not survive. If you decide to keep them in the ground, you need to watch for rodents, skunks, and water.
    Good luck! Ours should hatch any day.
