I’m growing triops, I think they’re dead, but may be sleeping…?

Yeah they kinda seem dead because I move them around with a spoon and they just drift but i thought one was dead before but it started moving so I’m really not sure. Are they just sleeping =)?
They’re only 8 days old, I’ve think I’ve been feeding them too much, I’ve tried my best to follow the instructions, and the water is clean.
Do they even sleep?

  1. How long have you had your triops? They don’t have terribly long life spans – only around two months.

    If you’ve had yours about that long, it would be time for them to die. But if you’ve kept them properly, they should have laid eggs, so you can dry their substrate and hatch a new batch of them. This link tells you how to prepeare the eggs: http://filebox.vt.edu/c/channum/triops_care.htm
