Jan she has her forever home lined up already as I have a waiting list for hatchlings, I usually keep them around 3 months as I like to make sure they are doing well and are growing etc I will put her in the same set up as an adult and feed same diet mostly fresh weeds some lambs lettuce etc during these colder months but hatchlings don't need as much food obviously so it's easier to find enough weeds for hatchlings. They are very much self sufficient as soon as they hatch and obviously in the wild would look after themselves. I bath hatchlings daily as they can dehydrate quickly but other than that care is pretty much the same as adults x
