I am not an expert, but if I had that chick, I would cull it. I know that some people have a chick with a crooked neck, and that is fine. I am more concerned for the yolk sack that did not absorb.

I am interested in talking with anyone that has bought hatching eggs from ray Valentine,
I want to know what their hatch rate was and what they thought of the eggs
I think that it has to do with where you live, because I got a better hatch at 60% humidity, but I live in dry county riverside california, most of these people here are hatchaholics and I would take their advise
