VID - My Pancake Laying an Egg!
Here's a short video I took last week of my female African Pancake Tortoise digging her nest and laying her first egg for me. I hope it's fertile!

You would think they would smash the eggs with their sharp claws but no, so gentle. Nice video, good luck and thanks for sharing.
