Hatchling snapping turtles are about the size of a quarter. (9) Adult female snapping turtles usually measure from 9.5 to 14.5 inches (24 to 36 cm) (mean carapace length is 11 inches or 28.4 cm). Adult males usually range from 9.5 to15.5 inches (24 to 39 cm) (mean carapace length is 13.3 inches or 33.6 cm).
When hatching begins, small slits will be seen in the egg shells. The baby turtles have a small projection on the tip of the nose known as the egg tooth. This projection allows the hatchling to cut the tough shell in order to make his escape. Usually the hatchling process takes from twelve to forty-eight hours.
