tell me what to do please.

keep them warm and humid/moist, and try not to touch them much for the next 24-48 hours.

looks like many were still-born premature, and some are premature with yolk sacks still attached...

many of these may not make it but some may absorb enough of the yolk over the next few days and probably survive.

best situation would've been to leave them where they were and to have just removed the mother, then leave them be for another couple days, considering they stay warm and moist.

i'm sure you'll get alot mroe help inbetween the next few days...

best wishes! Joe

First of all CONGRATULATIONS !!!!

I would get them off the towel A.S.A.P !!!!

I would get a deli cups.Fill with filtered water about 1/4 inch, and place each of the babies with the yolk sac in a deli cup seperately.Then put them in a cage that is about 85'.Keep them warm,not hot,Don't let them dry out.Leave them alone.

With the rest of the babies get a plastic container big enough to house the rest of the babies.Place clean moist paper towels on the bottom of the container,and put the babies in the cage with the rest of the babies with the deli cups.

Change the paper towels everyday and replace with new moist clean ones.

Leave the babies alone so they can to get it togeather,Keep them warm and don't let them dry out. Good Luck and have fun !!!!!
