Listening to Chen Xin's words, Yan Yinghao suddenly said, "Old Chen, you said Eve's life was in danger before, so would it be related to laying eggs?"

Before Chen Xin could answer, he said to himself: "This is very likely. At first, Eve's symptoms such as decreased vitality, decreased appetite, and anxiety may be their pregnancy reaction."

"We thought it had gastrointestinal problems at the time, so we stopped our diet, which made it unable to obtain enough energy to supply the turtle eggs in time, and could only consume its own energy to transfer and supply."

"In this way, it has been unable to replenish energy for a long time, but it has continued to lose energy, causing its health to further deteriorate. In the end, it needs a lot of energy after entering the egg-laying period recently. We still cannot provide it with it. It can only enter the fake death to protect the body until it returns to normal diet after coming to the protection area..."

Chen Xin took a deep breath and said, "So that's how it is?"

Li Ji shook his head and said, "Take it down quickly. I think this turtle has a difficult delivery. The previous symptoms were all caused by difficult delivery."

Yan Yinghao said: "This statement is untenable. Teacher, if Eve had difficulty giving birth, then why would it suddenly become normal after it arrived at the reserve two days ago?"

Li Ji said: "If it lacks energy, it has no strength to lay eggs at all, let alone produce normal turtle eggs."

Yan Yinghao sighed: "This is what I'm afraid of. Last year Eve laid five nests of eggs, but none of them could be hatched successfully..."

"Wait, Eve laid five nests of eggs last year?" Li Ji showed a surprised expression, "Didn't the turtle lay two nests of eggs a year?"

Yan Yinghao said: "It's normal, but Eve moved to our place from the zoo last year. When he was in animals, his activity space was smaller. After he arrived at us, he had exclusive space and good environments such as beaches and shrubs. The activity volume was high and the food intake was large. So we guessed that the eggs accumulated in the past were not discharged, and the ovulation volume increased after coming to us."

Ao Muyang said: "Then this time I changed my environment and ovulated again?"

Yan Yinghao waved his hand and said, "Of course not. It was very unreasonable to ovulate suddenly this time. We didn't expect it to lay eggs in this season, so we didn't think about it in this regard when we found that there were physical problems in it before. We should have thought of it long ago."

Speaking of this, he kept stomping his feet in annoyance.

Ao Muyang said, "Okay, don't regret it first. Find a way to put these turtle eggs in the incubator first."

Yan Yinghao smiled bitterly and said, "It may be useless. If my guess is correct, then these eggs will definitely not be hatched, because the turtle eggs do not have enough energy supply during their development, and they are born with stunted development."

Ao Muyang waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about this. You must have guessed it wrong. It's just depressed. The living environment over you is still not good. These turtle eggs can definitely hatch."

He comforted himself. He felt that Yan Yinghao was right. This unlucky turtle was almost starved to death. Otherwise, so many experts would not be able to find out the symptoms when they checked it.

Chen Xin, who has been paying attention to Eve's egg laying, said: "Don't argue anymore. Eve can lay eggs too much this time. It has already laid six!"

A turtle can lay two or three eggs at a time, and at most five eggs. It is indeed rare to produce six eggs.

Li Ji insisted: "The previous symptoms were caused by difficult childbirth. This time, there were too many turtle eggs formed in Eve's body."

There were indeed a lot of numbers. Eve held it in for a while and finally found two eggs again.

In other words, it produced eight eggs this time!

Li Ji asked the students to bring the incubator, and they had to grab the eggs.

The incubation box in the protection area is very modern. There is a thermostat on the top of the box. The box is transparent and easy to observe. There are two layers of shelves inside. One layer of shelves is sand and the other layer of shelves is water. In addition to maintaining a constant temperature, the hatching of the small turtle must also maintain a humidity of 25%.

After laying eggs, Eve lay on the beach to rest. It took him from morning to afternoon. After recovering his strength, he got up and left. He ignored the turtle eggs behind him...

This is the nature of all turtles, and the same is true for laying eggs in sea turtles. After laying eggs in sand pits, they buried them and then drilled into the sea to migrate.

But for conservationists, the nature of female tortoises is a helping hand. If female tortoise protects her cubs like mammals, then conservation is really difficult to carry out.

Chen Xin held up the turtle eggs one by one, holding them in both hands as treasures.

Ao Muyang followed him up to watch the turtle eggs of the spotted turtle up close, but it turned out that nothing special. The turtle eggs were not very good looking at them. The egg shell was a little thin and had black lines on it.

Chen Xin and Yan Yinghao couldn't leave after Eve laying eggs, and Li Ji didn't want to let Eve go. He wanted to take Adam over together to add weight to the reserve.

This time, Ao Muyang didn't care, because even if the turtle was brought to the protection area, the tourists could not visit. In order to protect the turtle, the country does not allow non-professional personnel to contact them.

However, Eve successfully laid eggs and produced eight eggs extraordinary. This incident became news. In fact, Eve's ability to revive is news.

It was not Ao Muyang who exposed the news, but Li Ji. Li Ji attributed the successful recovery of turtles to the protected area. He specially contacted the media to promote the protected area.

In addition, his purpose of promoting the protected area is not for himself, but for making the protected area more famous, and in the future, he can obtain more special funds.

It was learned that one of the only two spotted turtles in China has changed from dying to health and successfully laid multiple turtle eggs. This news value is quite great for the media. Starting from mid-May, media from many provinces and cities conducted interviews and reports on this.

Because the reserve is in Longtou Village, when introducing the current situation of the turtle and the reserve, Longtou Village was also promoted, making Longtou Village even more famous.

The weather is warm and tourists are increasing. With the media promoting this, there are more tourists coming to the village.

This is nothing. One morning in the middle, Lu Zhichao, who had just been promoted to a senior official in the town last year, suddenly called Ao Muyang and said that CCTV was coming to the reserve to record the program.

After receiving this news, Lao Ao was shocked and asked, "Secretary Lu, the news is reliable? The reporter from CCTV is coming?"

Lu Zhichao said: "Hurry up and prepare for the reception work. The people working group has arrived at the town committee. We will arrange for them to take a rest and then go to your village."

Ao Muyang said: "Then it's no problem. What do we have to prepare here?"

Lu Zhichao said: "You should have experience in this regard. Prepare a lunch, and you will be exempted from welcome ceremonies and gifts. You won't be able to play this out now. By the way, don't be too grand for dinner..."

"Just follow everyone to have a meal, don't stew the turtles." A crisp voice came into Ao Muyang's ears along the phone.
