ELEM/MID REF: Hatching turtles

[KATHY HINTZ <hintz@VAXA.CIS.SUNYCGCC.EDU>]

Hi,

I wasn't sure what to put in the subject line.  Here's what's
happening:  A sixth grader says he found a nest of snapping
turtle eggs, and a group would like to use them as a science fair
project.  The first question is would lthey be likely to hatch in
time for the Fair?  Does anyone know where or whether I could
find a site that might provide information for these kids?  In spite of
all the things I collect from the 'Net, I'm drawing a blank on
this one.  I think one of the things they would be thrilled to do
is correspond with someone who can provide information for them.

Thanks for any ideas.

Kathy
