I would remove the hide spot and most of the basking sticks/branches for hatchling dragons, especially if those basking spots are the logs shown in your pictures.

The reason for this is the crix will have ample spaces to hide and remove themselves from the dragons vision in order for them to feed. They need a lot of food at a fast pace to stay healthy and it would be much easier for you to monitor them that way.

If you continue to use the sticks and hides, you must check them thorougly each night before the lights go off. More then likely dozens of crix will be hiding in the spots and inside the logs or under them and once the lights are turned off will come out to "feed" and will be all over your hatchlings.

Just my opinion. Congrats on the babies and goodluck with them.
