nice!

are there anymore hatchlings from that clutch?

Yeah, 2 more. I got another thread on them "I got the best looking bumblebees on the planet."

His siblings are all bumblebees.

Unfortunately, he is not eating. Sigh. I truly pray he'll make it. He was born at 47 grams and just shed for the first time a few days ago... 3 weeks after he left the shell. Assist feeding didn't go too well.

It just shed the first time and you've already assist fed?

Yep. He was born 45 grams - detached from yolk. Attempted assist-feeding when he went down to 39grams. I force-fed at the 5-week mark - he wasn't alert anymore. Barely lifts his head up.

His brother was born 47 grams - also detached from yolk. Started eating at the 3-week mark. He is now at 72grams, almost catching up to his other brother who was born at 69grams and is now at 80grams.
