My beardies starting poking their heads out their eggs yesterday morning ...so far only 1 has come all the way out and 5 others are still just still eyes closed with head out? Some are nearing 24 hours and I'm freaking. This is too long right? Is there anythino I can do? The one that's out is super healthy and active.

As long as the egg is soft an they are breathing just keep an eye on them for a little while they may just be resting. Keep looking for their eyes to open as well . (The reason for the egg question was bbecause if it gets to dry they can get stuck in it an suffocate . I had this happen with my first clutch with one egg. )

Ok, this is sooo nerve racking. My First Clutch ever. I don't see any movement or breathing, that's what has me worried. How long is too long? Is there something I should do at some point? Sorry for all the questions. Just want the best chance of survival for these guys....

It's no problem I completely understand I am the same way. I waited 36 hours before doing anything its up to u to make the decision on their fate sadly.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
