This is my Silkie in question. I am guessing a boy but the streamers are not super long in the back. Just a couple.... I also have a def. boy who is maybe at most a month older. The older one is super red in the face and has wattles. This one has zero wattles and all black in the face.
If its been more than 24hrs since external pip it would be ok to help it out. Start by peeling the outer shell first. Slowly peel the membrane. Make sure there is NO blood. If none do one other area and if none keep going till there is enough opening the baby can push itself out. Put back in the...
I think you just need to use your best judgement when helping. Listen to instincts. I just went through my first hatch. I had 2 eggs that pipped at the same time. over 13hrs in one hatched and one had only made the inital hole but couldnt move. I assisted and boy was he ready, Once the membrane...

No because I am sleeping. ;) I check it every 15 min when I am home to make sure its staying in the same range. This is my first hatch so trying to be over cautious about it all.
One more question, when I went home and checked it on lunch it was at the highest on 100.4 it seems to keep fluctuating and sometimes high is 99.7 and some times it goes higher. Should I still adjust a tad to make warmer or see what happens. This is so nerve racking!
Is it too late to increase or I can try and get it up a tad and expect the hatch date to extend? It stays at 99 for most of the time but does drop to a low of 98.2 before the heater kicks on again
Can yall help me? I am doing my first hatch and doing the dry incubation method. I am hatching serama eggs. The temp in my bator ranges from 98.2-99.7. Is this an ok range? Everytime I try to bump it a tad it gets to warm then eventually settles into this range. I am in Day 2 of the hatch.
I am on day 2 of my first hatch. I am doing the dry incubtion method. My temps run from 98.2-99.7. Is this an ok range. I have messed with the bator numerous times and it always seems to settle here. If I try to increase it gets to warm. I am hatching serama eggs.
