Blueys are starting to go!

I was hoping for a bit better start to the bluey season, but something is better than nothing. Even if that something looks like a little premie bluey with 3 slugs. This mother of this litter was a rescue in 2009. She came in so underweight that it was touch and go for a bit. Fast forward a couple years and now she's doing well. She didn't show any signs of taking after mating with the male so I had given up on her. Last night though we found the 3 unfertilized ova and the baby still in its sac. We thought it was stillborn until I picked it up and it began to wiggle and open its eyes. It has since eaten its embryonic sac.

Did the baby live? Do you think it was premature?

This one didn't make it. It survived long enough to eat what was left of the yolk and the membrane, but then died about 24 hours later.
