Thank you everyone! But a new problem has arisen and I feel like there's no way to fix it, but the chicks leg has been weird ever since it came out of the egg. He drags it behind him and doesn't really seem to move it at all just pulls it behind him while he shuffles all over the place. And it...
Okay I will try cleaning it up some. And we bought some packages of electrolytes at a feed store called "sav-A-chick" products to put in its water after it drys.
Thank you so much this has been a huge help and if anything else arises I'll be sure to rush here panicked.
Thank you again!
It was a day late it pipped on the 22 day around 6 am two days ago and the family member tried helping it around 28 to 30 hours later because it didn't zip it in the correct way and was trying to get out but the hole wasn't right.

Hi,

One is also having a hard time walking is that...
Please help! One of my baby chicks started her pip around 6am yesterday and it's been longer than 24 hours and she still isn't out. Should I help her or should I just try and see if she can get out herself...
I'm having trouble. My first ever egg that I've incubated pipped yesterday around 6am and still had not completely zipped this morning, but one of my family for some unknown reason decided they wanted to help it so know they have pulled most of the shell off and I don't know what to do...
