Sorry I meant to ask yesterday...being new to this, I haven\'t a clue what is normal for a turtle egg.
The eggs are not hard like bird eggs, they\'re kind of pliable. But both are dented. Is that normal? Are they okay? _________________ Trinka |

This reply may be too late to help you, but for the sake of anyone who may visit the board looking for the same answer. . .
This is caused by low humidity. Make sure you keep the substrate that the eggs are in moist by lightly spraying it 1-2 times a day with water, and make sure the eggs are in a covered container. A small rubbermaid storage box with a saran wrap top (with holes to allow breathing) works fine at keeping in humidity.
Hope you were able to get some help on this.
