Turtles usually mate in early to late spring, and also late summer to early autumn, depending on the species and the geographic location. In the wild, turtles lay one or two clutches of eggs in riverbanks, well above the water level... my suggestion is to have plenty of dirt or somthing were your turtle can palce her eggs...hope this link helps...rusty99.
