1 Egg 2 Pinstripes, twins

[firecrested]

Got twins today, both full pinstripes but they are half the size of a normal crested and can barely walk so I'm not expecting them to live long:-x

Cool man. Do not give up on them yet, I had one last year that was tiny but while a slow grower did fine. It was not moving very well at first either.

**Fingers Crossed** Twins are smaller- no room to grow in that tiny egg. They may need some "incubation time" outside the egg!

Not really. I sold a female to a friend that hatched twins last month at 2 grams each.;)

Oh theyr beautiful I hope they make it.

[shag]

poor little guys i hope the do well, they'll be needing some extra attention I'm sure.

I'm going to do what I can for them. maybe drop some cgd on their nose in a few days and see if they will lick it off.
These were my first full pin hatchlings so I really want to keep them alive

[Holly Hox]

They're so cute. Are their toes stuck together or did they not form? I can't tell from the pics but I'm sending good vibes your way that they make it for you!

[firecrested]

They are stuck together. Still have a bit of yolk on them

[david57]

Awww lets hope they make it.

[Sublime Reptiles]

Eric you always have nimals that never seem to not amaze me!

[Ihkura]

The biggest worry with premature hatchlings of any kind is that they didn't absorb enough of the calcium from the shell through their development. Hopefully they've got enough in their systems so that by the time they need to be introduced to food, they don't suffer a calcium crash.

The little ones are in my prayers.

[sarasin]

I will keep my fingers crossed for them :)

[Styx]

Oh man I hope they make it. I've always wanted twins from my geckos but that would suck something terrible for them to die.

Those two are so amazing too, I hope they pull through.

[MaddoxDobes]

congrats I do hope they survive as well!

[MoonriseGeckos]

What little sweeties. Hope they make it...

[dman2047]

Well you know what you have to do! They're very nice animals and with some extra attention they should pull through just fine. I wish you nothing but good luck with these twins.

[crestedjunkie]

I cant wait to see what they look like in a week or so... I think they will be fine for you. Best wishes~

[sarasin]

I meant to ask were they premature?

[firecrested]

I meant to ask were they premature?
Yes, very much.

[Katieam]

Poor sweet babies. I really hope they improve for you. I'll keep them in my prayers.

[rubberduckey273]

I've got my fingers crossed for you. They're very beautiful, I hope they make it.

[Saucy]

Oh are they beautiful!! I hope they pull through. Poor little ones!!

[compoundB]

their markings look very similar.
theyre not identical are they?

[Lunar Gecko]

Wondering if they got their shed off? That would be the first hurtle for them. Hope they are well!

It doesnt look like it. I am going to try getting it off today

[monster]

wow, congrats and good luck eric!

[Chasescresties]

fingers-crossed i hope they make it!

[Lunar Gecko]

How are they doing?

[firecrested]

The first one died the day after hatching. I got the shed off the other one and was dropping cgd on it's nose every morning but it died a few days after the other one.

[Talkenlate04]

Dang that sucks, you did all you could though. Sorry for your losses.

[MoonriseGeckos]

Really sorry! They were lovely lil guys.

[Alithany]

I'm so sorry to hear they didn't make it. It sounds like you did all you could do and more. I'm so sorry for your losses.

[firecrested]

Thanks.

I tried and thought the second one may have a chance but the way they looked out of the egg, I was expecting them to go fast.

[MaddoxDobes]

Oh nooooo!! So sorry to hear this!

[hupababy83]

dude I saw these guys on Iherp, and have been wondering how they are dong. I hope all is well!

They didnt make it. Were way too thin out of the egg and in bad shape from the start.

[hupababy83]

Im so sorry to here that!

[belle]

Aww, I'm sorry, Eric. I was hoping they'd pull through.

[rhatfield]

Sorry to here this, rip tiny babies.

[happyfetusday]

[bkram294]

that sucks, that happened to me before, not twins but a premature hatch, that little guy didn't make it either no matter how much I tried.

[Chasescresties]
