So im new to the baby thing. My eggs started hatching friday and i have 2 containers with 5 babies in each one. I have a small water dish and a small dish with squash baby food in it now. Ive had greens in their too. So i know it takes a while till new hatchlings to start eating but should i be worried or just assume they will eat when there ready? I ordered small phx worms and some pinheads but am sitll waiting for them to arrive. please help if you can thanks
Hey There,
I offer greens everyday from the day they hatch. Dont get upset if your chucking greens the 1st couple weeks. After a day or 2 out of the egg I start putting crickets in the tubs in small amounts until I see them gone. Then I up the amount. I tend to start with 1/4 inch crickets because pinheads are such a pain.
hope this helps.

we had our first hatch yesterday. discovered when we returned from work last night. today is day 2? the hatching's eye's are still closed. does anyone know when they should open?
Babies are really tired after hatching and i had 2 babies i kept in the incubator for 3 days till i moved...is he still breathing if so he is probably still tired. they just looked to be sleeping and continued to do so till i moved them then they woke right up.
