Denise,
It is an unfortunate part of breeding.... Sometimes it is human error and sometimes it is just natures way..... Either way it sucks..... Do not get discouraged because the deformities are usualy just a small %.....
To cull deformed leos or anything else I produce, I am fortunate enough to have some reptile eating snakes, lizards, and frogs.... I usualy put them in the cage and they are gone in a second.....
I would not freeze them because I am sure they feel their tissues crystalizing.... I would use blunt trama before freezing..... Put it in a plastic bag and smack it against a wall or floor as hard as you can.... It does not take much to cull a newly hatched leo.....
