Sad Day :(

We lost one of our little guys yesterday.
He died of complications from a hernia.
Well thats what we think it is.
We noticed that his insides, not sure what insides, popped out of where his yolk sack was atattched.
Poor little guy, and it was a boy.
What makes it worse is that it was the baby that my boyfriend and I were going to keep.

Re: Sad Day :(

Thank you all very much for your sympathy.
It is a sad thing, but we have to look toward the future.
The four remaining babies are blue, so things are looking good.
We do have one nippy little guy, but hopefully he'll grow out of it.
