Help!! Belly swollen, no energy, protruded cloaca

http://img.tapatalk.com/188e0709-4eae-b178.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/188e0709-4ebe-efb4.jpgI have been gone for a day, and when i checked on my hatchling he/she wasnt good, major swelling, and when u pick it up and if any pressure what so ever is applied its vent opens, i have a gut feeling i am too late, any ideas, i dont wanna lose this baby :(

Its only 5 days old, home is perfect for heat, humidity, has 1 hide that it never uses, black rack and in a shoebox. No shed, siblings are fine.

Vet visit immediately
Ive never seen something like that on here

She needs a vet for sure but like you suspect, it almost looks too late. Keep us posted, I definitely wanna know what is going on, this will be interesting to hear as I have never seen something like that.

Sounds like hard belly. It's hardened yolk inside the belly of some hatch-lings. Sometimes they get over it, and sometimes they don't, but there is no cure. Vet. visit for sure.

Gut feeling was right, this one didnt make it through the night. Crappy way to wake up.

dang sorry to hear.

Im so sorry. Was she one of the lessers?

That sucks. Sorry you lost that one. Being my first year I am trying to mentally prepare for these issues too:(

Would you have the stomach to do an autopsy?

I am really sorry to hear as well. I would just be super curious to find out what happened.
