Bad news.............

Well my little guy passed away yesterday sometime.The only sole survivor kicked the bucket.Only fed once on his own.Never got skinny, it was weird.Seemed to be in good shape.Oh well hopefully the next clutch from my reds will be better, especially if I catch her in time and pull the eggs before she rolls them.

I'm sorry to hear that

At least you got to play with him for a little while..Sometimes they just aren't meant to make it. I hope that you have a fantastic breeder year!

Yep, well thanks, and hopefully this year will go better.

Sorry to hear that Ethan. Could have had some sort of intestinal/digestive problem.. would explain why he never wanted to eat. All you can do is try try again, best of luck to you!
