Hatchling weight

[HollyH8]

Awesome chart, I'm recording mine in book, but I like this chart.. For the girl with the 25 gram hatchlings, can u post a pic, I dont have any advice as I'm just a novice but would love to see your babies.. And what does everyone think about green leaf lettuce? I feed my hatchling spring mix, I think it comes with four different types of baby greens/lettuces and I add green leaf and red leaf, my Sully loves the green leaf but always eats a bit of everything in the mix, he is gaining about 3 grams a week so far, so thats not bad, but just wanna know what every one thinks of green leaf, dont see it mentioned too much

Here's a couple pics of them (when I first got them).

There is no way to tell if they have parasites unless you do a fecal on them. The sad part is is that if they have a parasite and it is lefy untreated they will grow to be malnurshed and possibly die. The best thing and the responsible thing to do would be to bring them to a vet and have them checked out. When I got my little one she had parasites and was put on 2 different medications for almost 3 weeks.

If u r unable to take em to the vet there r a few folks on here that say punkin and butternut squash are natural wormers, the seeds in the butternut squash, what I read it to grind the seeds up and feed.. Thats just what I read I dont have any first hand experience and thats only if its worms u r dealing with, u can try this just incase, dont see where it can hurt hopefully its helps
