Turtles can lay eggs without mating, but the eggs laid are not fertilized, so they can not hatch small turtles. This kind of animal has fixed breeding period, generally in April to August every year, of which May to July is the peak period of spawning, every 10-25 days can lay eggs, each time can produce 5-8 eggs. Fertilized eggs in the appropriate temperature and humidity, will hatch young turtles, generally need 80-90 days
1, look at the eggshell: Look at the eggshell is the simplest way to judge whether eggs are fertilized, generally in the production of 24-72 hours later. See if there are white patches on the surface of the eggshell, if there are and will gradually expand, indicating that it is a fertilized egg, if not, it is unfertilized.
2, look at the blood: If you want to quickly understand whether the egg is fertilized, you can use a flashlight to hit the light on it, if you can see the blood, it means it is a fertilized egg. You can also pick up the egg and look at the sun to see if there is anything like a ribbon in the middle, if there is, it is fertilized.
3. Look at the yolk: After 10 hours of egg production, you can judge whether there is fertilization by looking at the position of the yolk. If the yolk remains in the middle and does not move, it indicates that it is unfertilized. If it sinks, it is a fertilized egg.
