I have a clutch of whiteside brooksi eggs and out of 14, 5 eggs are still alive. The first one pipped last night and crawled its way out of the egg today but it seems the yolk sac was never fully absorbed and it was still attached, its head and body looked great but right around its cloaca, it looks as though its tail is folded in half and the skin just fused together, what causes this? Its a big baby too, my temps were at 75 degrees and I kept the vermiculite moist, I'm a little disapointed. Thanks
