He's very vocal and wobbling around a lot. He hatched probably 5min ago. But he has a little yellow sac attached that I'm assuming is in absorbed yolk. Is there anything I should do, or will it dry up and fall off? This is my first time hatching in an incubator.
I decided to do my first attempt at incubating a few chicken eggs. I used a Reptibator, which is actually meant for reptile eggs, but I figured it would still work. I set two eggs on the 17th, two eggs on the 18th, and three on the 20th. So today the first eggs should have started pipping, But I...
