Figure 1 â Beetle Egg Development Rates/Temperatures As temperature increases in the litter and floor, the period of time required for a darkling beetle egg to hatch decreases from an average of 13.4 days to 2.56 days at 100Â° F. Temperatures below 68Â° F delay egg hatching beyond the 13.4 day period.
Insect and spider eggs may take a matter of days to hatch, but some insect eggs overwinter and mâ¦ay take over half a year to hatch. Birds' eggs may take around three to four weeks but even that is not consistent - the kiwi's egg has an incubation period of 70-80 days. The eggs of reptiles also vary. Crocodiles' eggs, for example, take around 65 days to hatch, whereas tortoise eggs may take anywhere between 70 and 120 days to hatch, depending on the species. There are three species of mammals which lay eggs (monotremes, comprising the platypus, short-beaked echidna and long-beaked echidna). Monotreme eggs, once laid, hatch in just ten days. 2 weeks
