I went to go check on my eggs today and saw this in the incubator:

My first ever clutch! The parents are Amara and Ziggy, both Mack Snow. Im kinda concerned about one of the babies though. He is half the size of his brother and hasnt actually walked once that Ive seen, while his brother has been zooming all over the place.

Congrats on the first babies! That's always exciting.

Keep an eye on the little guy, he may need a little more help getting going than his sibling. Is he not really moving at all?

He's moving a little now. I moved him into a deli cup with a wet paper towel and he moved to the center of the cup, started licking the moisture off the paper towel, then moved to the side and kinda coccooned himself in the paper towel. He is moving some, just not as much as his brother, who as soon as I opened up the container to move them jumped out and under my night stand. It took a good ten minutes to find him, but I got him and put him in his deli cup. I named him Houdini and I will be keeping him. lol. Ill probably be keeping both of them, but ill definitely be keeping Houdini. lol he's feisty and I like him.

Here's the little guy, who im thinking of naming Pip because of his size:
