How long does it take for snapping turtle eggs to hatch?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

That is just for the common snapping turtle so if it is another variety, the answer may be different.

If it is a snapping turtle (looks like it is) where would be the line of "cooler climate" where the turtles might "over winter"? Mr. turtle in my front yard is here in NH.
I have absolutely no idea @budda! Apparently I answered this back in the "wikipedia is an OK source" days. I went camping on the weekend with lots of turtles and they were just making their way across the island to lay their eggs while we were there - we even talked to a couple locals about them but neither said either way. You are even farther north than us - my *guess* is that here, they don't over winter, since it doesn't get really cold until December, but perhaps the climate is different over there in NH!
