Turtle Facts

Loggerheads nest at night. The average interval between nesting seasons is two to three years, but this can vary from one to six years.

Natural incubation periods range from 53-55 days in Florida to 63-68 days in Georgia. The time it takes for eggs to hatch is inversely related to temperature.
