This article has helped me save countless baby chicks. It has all the necessary information to walk you through an assisted hatch and help you figure out if you should assist. It also expains malpositions, which I had trouble understanding until I read this. This is my go to for any hatching questions or worries I or any others may have. Thank you so much Pyxis! I am so grateful for this article. Here is my sweet little guy who would have died if it weren't for this. He was my first assisted hatch. He is the perfect protector for my hens.
