Brad, Several years ago we had several nest that had cooked eggs.  They were deep enough but the weather that summer was extremely hot with very little rain.  We never figured out the
cause other than the extreme heat of the summer.  Nests were hatching at 51 and 52 days that year.  Carmel Zetts, Sunset Beach, NC

Subject: eggs cooked in nest

>
> Hello All,

One of the leatherback projects we worked with has found several nests
with
cooked eggs in their hatchery.  This happened naturally, not by humans,
and
we are a bit puzzled.  Theories range from nests not being dug deep enough
to the lack of wind passing over top of the hatchery, due to a relatively
tall barrier in front.

If anyone has had experience with this and can shed some light, please
write
me personally at <a href="/cgi-bin/wa?LOGON=A3%3Dind0307%26L%3DCTURTLE%26E%3D7bit%26P%3D232918%26B%3D--%26T%3Dtext%252Fplain%3B%2520charset%3Dus-ascii" >[log in to unmask]</a>

Thanks a lot-  Brad
