I've read that I shouldn't worry about the umbilical cord still being attached and that it will dry up and fall off eventually. But I've also read that it should be tied off. Does this one look like it needs to be tied? It's not bleeding, and it looks dryer than it looked yesterday. She's seven days old now.
Also, we were told to put a damp paper towel in part of the enclosure, but I've been reading on the forums that she should be "kept" on damp paper towels. She doesn't stay on the paper towel in this enclosure. Do we need to separate her from the others and put her in something just with paper towels?
Thanks! (I don't know how to embed the pics, but you can click on the link over on the left where it says Images: 2). Click on the "2" to see the pictures.
