Question: there was a small amount of poop in the Shell after hatch. Just now it did it’s first real poop and it’s clear and bright green.. I’ve heard bright green is bad but is this ok for first poop? I turned the IR light off for the pic to show color

Good move!
Looks fine to me.

Most likely just means hasn’t eaten yet. Offer feed and water tomorrow then let us see how poop looks. Is it acting normal?

 

[JillZaHulk]

Yes! Seems to be acting just fine. Very chatty. So chatty I think it's acquired the name "pip" for pip squeak. Scoots itself around ok for a few mins then sleeps a lot then scoots then sleeps lol talkative. Open eyes. Seems to be doing good

 

[Miss Lydia]

That’s great and will probably be ready to eat tomorrow. Be sure to give the little one warm
Water to drink it’s much better on their little systems for their first week. And don’t forget pics of little pip!

Not eating. The stuff is just in there at the moment. It's just scooting around exploring. I think it likes laying on the pan cuz it's warm from the light.

Tomorrow you might want to show water and feed remember mama would be the one doing this! What a precious little Pip. Any more getting ready to hatch.
