that's pretty exciting. i hope you get some hatchlings. i'm curious what part of the country you live in and if there were any physical signs that indicated she was gravid. i have a female that is possibly gravid. she has a puffy look to her skin (almost like she has grown faster than her shell) and is very heavy for her size. she is also more active than the others and has an incredible appetite. i'm hoping she's getting ready to lay but the weather here in oregon is still pretty cold and wet. also i'm wondering how long your torts were in hibernation. good luck to you and your eggs !
