Where most of the Spartan babies healthy?

Most Spartan babies were not considered healthy by modern standards. Due to the rigorous standards of Spartan society, newborns were examined by elders, and those deemed weak or unhealthy were often abandoned or left to die. This practice was part of the harsh eugenic policies of Sparta, which aimed to maintain a strong and capable warrior class. Thus, while some Spartan babies thrived, many did not survive to adulthood.
