The egg is shipped 10 days before its predicted hatch date. Like a human’s due date, an Instahatch predicted hatch date is just an estimate. Based on our experience and knowledge we make the judgment call on when the egg is ready to ship.Hatching your own tortoise is super easy as long as you follow the detailed care guide.

*Please note that you need to supply your own incubator. We suggest the Hovobator 1602N You do not need an egg turner or anything else that amazon will try to sell you. We supply you with a deli-cup and substrate for incubating the egg for the final few days of development
**Hatch A Tortoise Instahatch eggs are 100% guaranteed to hatch (as long as you use the recommended incubator or an approved one, confirmed by us). If your egg does not hatch you will get your money back (minus shipping).

We received our leopard tortoise egg on November 26th, immediately followed the instructions given in the Tortstork Care Guide & set the egg up in the incubator. Four days later we hatched a beautiful, healthy, & extremely active leopard tort. Randy was in touch from the moment we placed the order for our egg & very attentive throughout the hatching process & days after. We could tell that he cares very much about each animal he sends out. We have three young kids & they loved being involved & seeing the changes in the egg & tortoise after hatching. This was truly the experience of a lifetime & more than worth the investment!

What a great experience! My kids and I enjoyed coming home each day to check on the egg. It took a bit longer than anticipated to hatch but it was a great life lesson for my boys, patience pays off! Randy answered any and all questions we had along the way. We are looking forward to enjoying our new family member for many years to come. Thank you!

Amazing! Great communication throughout the whole process, very cool experience to hatch your own egg and the most adorable little tortoise. The only negative is that you will want to buy a thousand more! Definitely recommend

Got a live tortoise instead of an egg so I wouldn’t have to wait 2 months for the eggs to be ready. The tortoise came in healthy and is now eating like a champ!
