New to hatching.
One of the not yet hatched eggs got got a small crack in it from the other chicks that hatched bumping it. The membrane was torn just a tiny bit. The chick is 2 days behind the others- put in on the off chance we might be able to hatch it instead of waiting 3 weeks for others to hatch. There is a bit of yellow fluid that came out of the crack when I examined it. I very quickly candled the egg and the chick is still moving.
Do you think this chick will be ok? Anything I can/should do to help save it?
I moved the hatched chicks to the brooder as they are fully dry now.
