UPDATE- helped two out- pics of hatch!!!

The little guy is still in his shell, think I jumped the gun on that one, but certainly not on the other. The second one, when I got towards the end, there was a drop of blood so I stopped. He's hanging out in his shell now, but I think he can get out when he's ready.

Yup! As of this morning, the big one I helped all the way out last night is dry and fluffy and doing great. The little one just recently hatched out all the way on his own. He's wobbly, but looks okay.

It's a very personal decision to help. Most of the time when I assist and I only do it when there is no other resort they have died but one so most times I leave it.

Nearly 24 hours later, both I helped out are alive and healthy, BUT the first one, the one I helped all the way out, something seems wrong with his feet. He can walk, but he sort of limps. Not really limps, more like he sorta staggers. Looks kinda like a drunk chick lol. Any idea what would cause that?
