First successful hatching of a Spiny Hill Turtle here at Zoo Med!
Zoo Med Laboratories is excited to announce our first successful hatching of the Spiny Hill turtle, Heosemys spinosa. The egg was found on August 13th in the Spiny Hill turtle habitat in our state-of-the-art greenhouse facility. It was incubated for 93 days in a Reptibator and took three days to completely emerge from the egg. As a hatchling, this turtle resembles a ninja throwing star with "points" all around the edge of its shell. In nature, these points probably provide young turtles with protection against predators. While hatchling turtles are often very shy, this little turtle appears to be curious – lifting its head and looking around whenever caretakers are near.
Navigating the world of reptile, fish and bird keeping can be challenging; so let the animal experts at ZOO MED lead the way! These great new catalogs are filled with supplemental husbandry information to help you make the best choice for your pet. ZOO MED's Research and Development team has been hard at work this year and we are proud to introduce many new innovative products. GET SERIOUS, GET ZOO MED!
