    Date: 1/21/01 1:06:01 AM Pacific Standard Time From: jonathanhelms@… (Jonathan Helms) To: ModelGrafx@… I found the eggs by accident. About two months ago I moved all my terrapins into the garage from a small outdoor pond, I was repairing something on the indoor setup. As I was carefully digging in the sand I found the first nest. Since the first e-mail I searched the entire sand area(5 feet by 3 feet) and found three more nests!!! That’s a total of 33 eggs, I am so shocked. I have six females all over seven inches and three males, I got them about a year and a half ago. Last November I found three babies in the outdoor pond but I could not find any more eggs. These eggs are going to be the first eggs that I have ever hatched. Thanks for the advice I will keep you posted. Jonathan
