They are creating pups, which is a good sign! But the leaves look overwatered. I would get a chopstick and stick it about halfway under the soil. Leave it there for about an hour or two and if it looks wet, and/or has a decent amount of soil on it, then wait until watering. Make sure it is near a sunny windowsill and it will be doing well in no time at all!

Give it as much sun as you can, and o Lu water it when the soil is BONE dry. Even better, wait until you see slight wrinkling on the leaves before watering. Here’s my burros tail leaves showing slight wrinkle for reference (bottom leaves). These wrinkles mean the plant actually wants water, and they will plump back up within a few hours of watering :)

Make sure to keep it in a place with plenty of sunlight. And only water it when the soil is completely dry.
