    Help needed: Pippin chick's egg broken by hen

    Help needed: Pippin chick's egg broken by hen

    Hi, A hen cracked open this egg but the baby chick is still pippin and moving a bit. It's been 19 days since her incubation started but doesn't seem ready to break through yet. What can be done to save her? I'd appreciate any help/experience 🙏🙏
