PLEASE HELP I NEED SOME ADVICE

I have human nail clippers, and i have cat nail clippers, but hes really squirmy so i cant really get a grip on his paw without him pulling away, but ill give it a try. Idk if u guys have answered this for me or not but do you guys/girls have any idea why she doesnt know how to pick him up properly, often when shes moving him he will drop right out of her mouth or cry

Can someone hold him while you clip?

Why is she picking him up all the time? Most moms only do that when they want to move their kittens to a new nest. She doesn't need to be picking him up constantly. Does she perhaps need her nest moved into a more private area?

She seems to want him with her all the time, she only moves him when she goes out to the litter box, she will have to do this until later today, and im not too worried about her moving him, she is trying to pick him up by his head and not his neck, which scares me.

First, she needs to have a litter box in the room with her nest.  Second, I think she is telling you that she doesn't feel safe leaving him in the nest.  There is no other reason that she should want him with her all the time.  Can you move the nest to a closet or something where she can feel more secure?  It's not ideal for her to be moving him all the time because there is a much greater chance of him getting hurt, as you're noticing.  

Also, you don't want either of them running into your male cat.

I moved the nest into my closet, its really not the warmest, i put two heating pads in there, and i bought the litter box already, i bought a few disposable to last a great while, the checkout person looked at me like i was the crazy cat person. We'll see what happens

She'll need her food and water nearby as well.  Make sure the heating pads only heat half of the nest so the kitten can move away if it gets too warm.

Okay so i know the Kittens eyes are supposed to open within a few days (hes a week old), the corner of his eye is open, when i say the corner, i mean like a little bit of the corner, does that mean it could be opening soon? Like tonight or tomorrow?

Yes! Sounds like they're starting to open, one by one. Usually takes 1-3 days for each eye to be fully open. It's funny how they react, since they're seeing the world for the first time. I had a litter of 8 kittens that started to open their eyes literally 2 days after birth, definitely record breaking for my experience! And they were born day 64! Amazing

It seems like every time that look at him its open just a little more, and how do they react? And wow, u must have a had your hands full with all the kittens running around lol

They opened but there is this like clear watery thing over them, is it normal

Can you please post a photo? No flash around the kitten though.

I will as soon as i get home, it kinda looked like tears

It seems like it is all gone... is it normal for them to check out there paws a lot lol [emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji]

Glad the eyes are fine! Kittens check out just about everything! [emoji]128149[/emoji]

Hes been very interested about my fingers and his front paws lol when i rub his belly, he rolls over and puts his paw in his mouth

Hes been getting really fat, hes actually so big he cant move himself sometimes

So ive noticed that the kitten has been biting on momma and my fingers when im there.... is it normal? Or is he teething

Don't let him bite your fingers. It's a hard habit to break. Mom will discipline him when he nibbles on her.

It's possible that he's getting some teeth in. When he does, around 4 weeks, you can start making some kitten mush for him!

I can actually feel little points when he does that... but thank you i will not let him nibble anymore.

So hes now week 3. Hes doesnt bite as much, hes starting to look like he has a lazy left eye... is this something i should get looked at or am i safe..
