HELP WITH NEW BABY!!!

Leo_Lover07 Apr 16, 2008 09:23 PM

I have successfully hatched my first baby, yesterday is when it happened. I have two problems. One, my baby got his toe and tail stuck or something and it looks iritated, what to do? Two, I know before babies hatch they absorb what they need for the first 3 or 4 days. Are they suppose to be really skinny, b/c mine is REALLY skinny. Could someone send me some pics of there hatchlings so I can compare and make sure its not sickly or ill, ASAP. Thanks alot guys.
