    Help!! What do I do?? I’m a first time hatcher and I did what I thought was best but the membrane bled and I’m not sure what to do. My instinct is just to leave it be now.

    So I’m currently hatching duck eggs and one of them pipped internally over 24 hours ago but no external pip. I put in a small safety hole but when I did it bled a little bit. It is safely back in the incubator now with no bleeding. Is this ok?
