Once they hatch put them on wet paper towel. Not like a swimming pool, but pretty damp. Give them a water bowl. Then - leave them alone! They need to absorb whatever is left if there is any umbilicus sticking out and the wound will heal just like a belly button. Then they shed. Until they have shed, leave them alone.
Thank you! I put a water bowl and the hatchling is in it, soaking....? Is that okay?
