Answer by Jessica lopez. Confidence votes 5. Since I don't know exactly which species of turtle chose to lay her eggs,the length of incubation (or amount of time it takes for eggs to hatch) depends a lot on weather conditions.Temperature, humidity, rainfall, and other factors influence incubation. Generally, land turtle incubation ranges from 45-90 days.onfidence votes 5.

The following incubation times are average ranges: Tortoises, 70-100 days; box turtles, 60-90 days; water turtles, 60-85 days; and exotic tortoises, 100-160 days.Use these times as a guide; remember, there can be exceptions based on external factors.any water turtle eggs require the same length of time. Some of the more exotic species require up to six months (one African Pancake tortoise hatchling appeared after 210 days!); in these cases, it is best to check specific references, look on the internet, or network with other keepers to learn incubation times.
