Hey guys,

Sorry I'm kinda freaking out here but she's only my second hatchling and albino if I'm not mistaken and I'm a little worried. I just opened up the incubator to check up on the eggs and I saw her kinda chillin in there and this gooey mass in the cup with her. It was attached to her belly which looks kinda dented so I need help! What do I do? I didn't observe my other hatchling so I don't know if this will take care of itself or if I need to do something. She moved around and covered the goo when I tried to take pics but it's barely attached to her, and you can kinda see her dented stomach in the pics. Please help!

Thanks in advnace!

Wash it off gently if you can. Put her in a warm place with paper towels or tile. Mist her a few times a day so she has some humidity for now and so she can drink. It's likely she'll be ok.

Yah, i'm pretty sure that is just her yolk sac. She's just finishing it off and getting allthe nutrients.
Put her on a wet paper towel, or something else soft, but i recommend paper towel. Do your best to always keep it moist. She'll probably drop it in a day or two.
Don't worry, it happens quite often!!
