The humidity is critical, do not drain the water, does it not have the wire to protect the chick from water? The red bulb is what I use on the baby's that hatch here, and I just set it up so that one end is heated and the other is not they find a comfortable place. If u are worried about chick...

I assisted with him, he had piped externally and internal all at once, glad it happened that way I waited 24 hours before I started pulling away the egg, the baby was ready and all was well.its all fluffed up and I can't tell it from any of the other baby's now.

Malpositioned chick, free from harm!

I have a chick that has piped the wrong end. I'm waiting on the vessels to dry to help any further....I'll stay right by this little one
