Talking Northeastern painted turtles, hatching pictures

We hatched 2 clutches of painted turtles a 100%
hatch of 19 babies. They were layed on my front lawn.
We get lots of females laying as there is a big beaver pond
next door. The Damn raccons get most of them so we brought these
2 clutches in. I watched the females lay the eggs and dug them
right up. We put the babies in the pond as they hatched.

It's great that you took the time and effort to hatch the little guys. Congrats, it must have been really rewarding to see the cute little turtles swim off

Congratulations and well done. It's so lovely to hear of a couple of clutches of captive hatched cuties done for the love of the species instead of just a profit motive.

ye i agree..you really gave them a nice head start in life. I bet most of the eggs would have been eaten or not even hatched. good job

That kicks.........you guys should feel really proud that is quite an accomplishment. Not only to successfully incubated and hatch them but then to put them back in the wild. Congrads to both of you. Turtle lovers rule! TB

Cool! That must have felt great to hatch those out. I will have to check out the pond the next time I head up.
