Hi!

I have female and male , they are adult. They made a love ( sex) 28 days ago, but I still dony have eggs.
How long should I wait for  them? When I can connect them again? Please help me!

I'm from other country, so sorry for my bed language

Greetings for everybody!

Hi
Mating doesn't always mean eggs. She may wat a year or more befor laying them. Or it can be as quickas 6 weeks.

I keep mine together all the time.

How many females and males do you have? do you have small tortoises from eggs? Does your tortoises sleep in winter?

I have 19 females and 11 males in my main colony

My youngest "hatchling" is 4 months old. I have some others that are 2 years, 4 years, 5 years a nd 11 years old. I have hatched over 200 eggs

My adults hibernate outside. The young ones come in for the winter

[nulus]

wow!

You have really big colony!

A have one male and one female...male is for her strange, sa they are separated. They don't hibarnate in winter. but when they are together, they sometimes make a love.

So, when I can connect them again? On spring?

mine are together all the time

Yes, but you have big colony, a lot of females. I have one male, one female, and you should know, how male is "talking" with female. He all time think about love...and female sometimes can't go away, so, tehy aren't together all the time.
