The first eggs of 2021

The first eggs of 2021

The first eggs of 2021 are already here 🐢👀 1 egg of a musk turtle and 4 of a charcoal burner 🙂

PS: Fertilized or not, we do not let eggs hatch. At this point there is nothing but yolk in the egg. Life has yet to arise by the influence of heat. So it is not pathetic to destroy eggs but actually a necessity. There are too many of these turtles looking for a home... We blow out eggs as much as possible and keep them for educational purposes, speeches, etc. Female turtles always lay eggs, with or without a male.
