i've been serching for some answers but didn't find any, so if they been answered i'm sorry. first time hatching corn and just was woundering what i need to do after they hatch from the eggs. other than taking them out of the incubater. any advise will be taken. mjh
 
Separate the hatchlings and place into individual ESCAPE-PROOF enclosures. Make sure water is available and that temps are correct (mid-80s). They'll shed in a week or so. After the first shed, feed them a newborn pinkie every 5 days until they're large enough to bump prey size or double-up on the prey size. Good luck. :)

thanks. is there anything special when handling newly hatched corns. mjh
Not really. The little guys are usually very timid compared to an older, established corn, so expect bites, crapping, and maybe even a little musking.

Yep, thats what my lovely hatchlings like to do...bite, crap, sling musk, and squirrm in my hands really fast in hopes I will drop them so they can get away!
 
What is exciting is seeing them grow! Witnessing their first shed and getting them eating well and calming them down are all things that are great experiences with them for sure.
