Farm Update: Turtle Hatching Experiment

I know they look like sandy golf balls in a bag but those things are actually turtle eggs. John noticed them at the market, 70 pesos for that bag and I bought them. I wasn't sure if they could be hatched but I had a hunch and it seems I might get lucky after some research, I figured out how to hatch them if they're viable.

Oddly enough you basically plant them in moist soil and keep it moist for 50-55 days until they hatch. Some people do an incubator to 80 degrees Fahrenheit but it's not necessary, you just cannot go over 90 degrees or they'll die.

Not sure yet what I'm going do do with the turtles once they hatch. My guess is they'll be sea turtles that I'll go and release into the ocean.
