My MSS baby hatched out really tiny- about 1cm smaller than normal hatchlings. It is also less lively, it doesn't scream at me and is slower in moves than others. What is the chance for it to survive? Can I help the little one in any way? It is 3 days old now and doesn't look either better or worse than after hatching. It resorbed egg sack allright before hqatching but I am still worried- the only thing I have done was to put it into the incubator and make a fairly stable environment- a bit humid with 26,5 deg at daytime and 25 at night...

I had a tiny one hatch recently. It did scream at me, but was really weak. I made Marcia's slurry and fed it for a few days. After that, it started eating on it's own. Make sure you check when it sheds, too. Ours had trouble. Even though we caught it the next day, it still lost some toe tips. Good luck and I hope it pulls thru for you.
Ok, gecko is licking mealworm insides from a finger. He is about week old and still lives, but the thing that bothers me is that it is still before the first molt. I hope he will survive, she is a cute little girl...
Her clutchmate MS is a 1-2cm larger and is 2 days after molt and eats like crazy.

The smallest I've hatched so far was 1.4g out of the egg, and she eventually grew up to be 80g?!? Best of luck with the little one :main_yes:
