Chinese Waterdragon hatchlings (pics)

[diabolique]

I had six little lizards (chinese water dragons) hatch on jan 21 and 22 and here are the pics. Unfortunately the smallest one has passed away as of about 10 minutes ago. It's very sad but i wasn't sure he was going to make it in the first place since he was about 1/2 the size of the other hatchlings. He came from the smallest egg. I tried so hard to keep him alive but it just wasn't enough. Right now i have him on a paper towel here beside me, i guess i am hoping he will revive but I know its not going to happen. Before i posted my pics i just wanted to take a moment to remember him as a beautiful little creature even though i only was able to be with him for one day. So please when you are looking at these pics take a moment to remember the little one that didnt make it.
