Lost one baby

Majesty_Cassy Aug 02, 2004 09:55 AM

Well, 14 babies out of 16 eggs on the first clutch. We lost one that had a tail infection. The meds were not enough because he wasn't eating enough. We are sad but the same day we hat 12 eggs from the second clutch hatch. We now have 19 out of twenty of the second clutch hatched out. That makes a total of 32 babies. We still have 36 more eggs in the 3rd and 4th clutch to go. Wish us luck.

but it happens, part of raising clutches is having at times to deal with the fact that some do not make it.

best to you and the babies..... I hope you have good homes lined up for that many, thats a lot of little mouths to feed!
