Premie

[Riley ann]

I’ve got what I think is a premie hatchling. He was found in our back yard and he is tiny. We sold him but the lady is scared he is dying. She says his eyes aren’t always open and his legs are very skinny. There were no hatchlings around him and he has a soft shell.

Cute little thing. I see it still has its egg tooth. Hopefully the person you sold it to knows how to take care of it. Refer the lady to this forum. Plenty of folks here to help out and offer suggestions!

Tell the owner to look on the forum under the sulcata section and to follow the closed chamber threads.

The lady has a current leopard she raised, so she understands the need. He was always the runt and I warned her. I just want to try to save. The lady doesn’t wanna watch it die and I’m trying minerals and baby food in the water. I feel very bad because the lady has kids.

this is what I got to put in the water.
