It depends on the reptile. Some, such as sea turtles, will leave their nests as soon as they lay their eggs. Others, such as crocodiles, will defend their nests and their young with all their might.

The exception - is crocodiles and aligators. The 'mother' will guard the nest of developing eggs, and often carry their newly-hatched young down to the nearest water source - rather than let them find their own way.

Do reptiles and birds have similar life cycles?
To some degree. Both birds and reptiles reproduce sexually and have offspring that resemble their parents. All birds and most reptiles lay eggs. One key difference is that reptiles are born largely able to fend for themselves while birds are fairly helpless and need their parents' care. The only reptiles that provide parental care are crocodiles and alligators, which help their young hatch and protect them from predators, but do not provide food.
