Finally the happy day was upon us.

Jeffrey's egg was pretty small.

Just a little larger than a dime.





     
Early in the afternoon of 10.13.03
a friend, Jeff Richards
was looking into my turtle terrarium
when he spotted something odd.
He dicovered an egg in the process of
breaking open.
In honor of his quick eye the baby turtle now had it's name.

Love was in the air

For Jeffrey, this is when it all began.

It was a warm spring day, April 5th 2003

love was in the air

Twelve weeks later Fred laid 6 perfect eggs.

The proud parents kept close watch over them.
