General Care Discussion :: Bio teachers turtles

[Andrew7769]

hey my bio teacher has 2 turts and one of them is gravid she is a female and she is at about 6 inchs and she is w/ a male that is 5 inchs, its just about time for her to start laying and i was wondering if there was any tips i could pass along? btw i have been devoteing my lunch periods to helping my teacher prepare and we have enough room to foster all potentol babies and we have soil and sand for the females egg laying.

Talk to the thread owner there. They seem to have done their research.
