Update on Clutch #1

[Alexiel03]

Good to hear she ate.

Keeping the humidity up is huge for that first shed. I actually keep my hatchlings at 100% humidity for that first week of life by keeping them in the egg box in the incubator with wet paper towels until they shed. All of mine have shed by about a week. Once they shed I put them in their own tub in my hatchling rack and then offer their first meal within a week after they shed. This last clutch, 5 out of 7 took their first meal offered last night. I'll try the other 2 again around Friday. Just wanted to share my hatchling startup procedure since I've had 100% success rate doing things this way over the last few years, could be helpful for future clutches.

Now for this girl, just make sure to keep her humidity as high as possible until she gets that first shed off. Good luck.

Thank you I will continue to offer the rest of the clutch on normal feed days (every friday) and hopefully they will eat soon.
I have them in their own tubs and am using coconut chips for the substrate, paper towels dry out too fast for me too keep up with. The chips keep the humidity up where I need it.

I put them in their tubs after they crawl out so they get familiar to the tub quicker. I've got water and hides in with them also.

Almost all of the double het DG Clowns have shed already too!

Also my OD Fire YB clutch has pipped today but couldn't get a pic quick enough and it pulled its head back into the egg lol

From what I saw I've got some rippers in this clutch! No normals again!!! Gonna be a long couple days waiting for them to come out lol
