Last night I had two eggs hatch from the same clutch. One is big and healthy and active, but the other one was very weak and just laying there. It appeared to die but I rubbed it's stomach a little and then blew into it's face, and then it stood up and walked around for a few seconds. It then fell down again and finally dies. This is the second baby I've had die this season right after hatching. Has this happened to anybody else? I'm thinking that the baby was just too exhausted from hatching and had no energy left.

I havent had any hatch and then die...but this year for me has not been successfull with my new male albino....I have had none hatch and am really stressed out. The closest one I had to hatch dippled and then never fully came out...it died in the egg! Hope you have luck, some years are good some are bad just depends on calcium, mom, dad, temps, humidity all of that!
peace
