    First two eggs have hatched! Question on hatchling's appetite...

    Hello again, my first two redfoot eggs have hatched and seem to be doing well as far as activity and hydration go. I still have not seen my first hatchling eat though and I am wondering at what point should I be concerned? And what can I do if this is concerning? Syringe feeding? Any secret...

    Red-footed tortoise egg question

    Our female red foot laid her very first clutch of eggs back on August 20th. I know that 12 hours after laying the eggs should not be handled but I am wondering at what point is it safe to gently handle the eggs, if ever? I can't seem to find an answer to this question anywhere.
