Mount Meru Jackson giving birth

[Mishkocham]

I just wanted to know if anyone has experience with Mount Meru or Jackson giving live birth..
I have a gravid Mount Meru female just gave birth however... I didn't see she was giving birth and the clutches were not able to come out from the embryo and it dried up and died... How can I prevent this from happening... I had Jackson before and most of the time the babies just crawl out from the embryo. But this is not the case with my Mount Meru her babies died because they couldn't get out from the embryo...
If anyone can tell me how to prevent this from happening in the future that will be helpful...
Thank you in advance...

In my experience two things usually cause this. One is the babies are weak and not able to rupture the sac.The second is the female dropped the babies low in the cage. If dropped low in the cage the little bit of impact wasn't enough to stimulate the babies to start moving.

One of my Meru females recently had a clutch that was much the same as yours. The babies must have been too weak to break out of the sack. They were dropped from high enough so I don't think that was the reason. Out of 11 only two are still alive

The mother seemed to be is some distress for about a week prior to giving birth. She had been just hanging on branches and looking rather weak.
