This is my first hatchling. And it is 3/4 of the way out of the egg, but his tale and back legs are still in the egg. He is dragging the eggshell around his little incubator. I tried holding down the egg and see if he can walk out of it, but he tries and tries and can't get out. What should I do??

Hopefully by now your new Cresty has batched all the way. If not and you are still worried take a couple of pairs of forcepts or tweezers and pull the opening apart so it can escape the egg. Most likely it has already escaped the egg though, congratulations!
