How Many Babies Can A Box Turtle Have?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    We have 4 Female Florida Box Turtles (outside Kept) and this year we have 31 eggs so far.
    4 have hatched.
    3 are alive still. One baby was deformed and died last night.

    Last year with 2 females we had 17 eggs with 5 babies hatched.

    All eggs were removed from their pen in placed in moist vermiculite in a covered container.
    I open the container every for days for air flow.  
    No incubators were used, I just left them in our garage which stays at a good Temp.
    This year our babies hatch in 2.5 months.
