She doesn't look that small to me. After she absorbs most of her yolk sac, I'd be curious what she weighs. If I recall correctly my last batch of leopards hatched between 20 and 24 grams.


She weighs 10g and is half the size of her sibling. I don't expect her to make it. If she does it'll be a miracle.

Sadly she passed away. The vet checked her out and her shell was deformed to the point that internal organs were compromised. Thank you to everyone for your help.

Always something to learn from these amazing animals.

Bummer indeed. You seemed to have done an amazing job seeing as all the difficulties the little thing had overcome already.
