DEAD HATCHLING

He pipped and died a couple days later
@Cherepakha Im not really sure what happend, he was hatching with 2 others and I noticed that he pipped and wasnt really making his way out of the egg like the others were. So as I was helping him out a bit I noticed he wasnt moving at all. I have only had a couple die out of hundreds that have hatched and been fine. I think thats a pretty good ratio
 
That's a lot of hatchlings and I'm no expert, but yeah, sounds like a good ratio, but I can imagine it's hard to see it when it happens.. :(
