#turtle eggs

Short walk today, got to see some of the Turtle Eggs that I helped to protect get excavated to be incubated and release in a few months right back where they were laid.

Apparently, turtles lay dozens of eggs at a time, so one day, after the boys grow up and get married, Splinter could just wake up and find a bunch of eggs with a note from the boys saying "Have fun watching your grandkids."

Or he just realized "These kids could hatch any day now."

Turtle Eggs

My greatest achievement

I've spent the last hour breeding turtles over and over until I had a beach covered in dozens of eggs. Gotta keep the population up

Early dinosaurs may have laid soft-shelled eggs

Scientists for the first time have turned up evidence of fossils from soft-shelled dinosaur eggs. This has scientists rethinking how dinosaur eggs evolved.

The earliest dinosaur eggs were more like leathery turtle eggs than hard bird’s eggs. That’s the conclusion of a new study of fossilized dino embryos.

A team of paleontologists studied embryos from two types of dinosaurs. One came from early in dinosaur history. The other lived about 150 million years later. Both sets of eggs were enclosed by soft shells. The researchers described their findings online June 17 in Nature. It’s the first report of soft-shelled dino eggs.
