    13 grams! Wow, that is small. I've had one at 29 grams, but not that small. Let us know how it does.

    It could be just me or a weird camera angle/lighting issue, but it looks like its body has a lump in it about halfway through. Can we get a pic of it by itself? Sure is pretty all things considered

    I think that's what they call "yolk belly" From the large amount of yolk they absorb prior to crawling out of the egg?

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, as I am still learning

    Had 15 and 16 gram twins hatch this year, and as long as yolk all processes just start with very small pinks. keep us posted on how everything goes.

    Wow, it's tiny! So cute. Really great odds morph wise. Pinks or crawler mice? Whatever looks closest to its size.

    Re: 13g het caramel hatchling

    hatched a 23 gram twin this year. give the hatchling a chance for feeding on its own. like others said, start with a correct size pinky. keep a watch on it and don't wait as long as a larger hatchling that won't feed. they can go down hill fast. the 23 gram twin I hatched this year. I had to assist feed 3 times and then he ate on his own. he's doing great and doesn't miss a meal. good luck and keep us posted. don
