Help new born arm got squished

[Yeti]

One of our beardies that hatched a few hours ago arm got squished in the door of incubator. I have no clue what to do. Its arm was flat but now it looks back to normal. There walking around but not using that arm. Would a vet even be able to do anything with how small there arms are?

Boy I have no idea let me see if I can get some help here - I will send your post to Tracie the vet tech - and one other person that has experience w/ hatchlings-

Can you post a video of it walking ? At that tiny size I'm not sure a vet could help but it's up to you if you can find an experienced one. It might heal on it's own but depends on how much it was injured. Please post on youtube and post the link

He’s walking but dragging that arm behind. When I get close to him he gets defensive and sits still with his mouth open. I’ll try and see if I can get a video of him walking.

My last reply was how he was earlier. Now he’s not walking around at all or getting defensive. Now he seems lethargic.

He may not make it then -- I am sorry

Hopefully he pulls through. Thanks so much for trying to help. It’s so hard to find anything on early beardie hatchlings online.

That is why you came here -- can you get a video of him please so I can get it to the person who responded

Hello,

Oh so sorry that happened! Please show a picture or video if you can. He is defensive most likely
because his arm hurts. Just how hard did his arm get smashed, is it swollen or discolored?
Did he just hatch out, correct?
Have you tried to get him to eat anything yet?
