    Help! Chick 2 days early with something not right

    I don't think the temp is too hot. It is a Hova bator with a built in temp setting and I have thermometers inside and have done spot checks. None of other eggs have even pipped, which I would expect more universal activity on a hot bator.

    Help! Hard green stuff on bum.

    Thanks everyone. The chick is still in the incubator because I am sure the other 23 would pick on him at this point. I will keep working on his bottom and hopefully can get it cleared up.

    Help! Hard green stuff on bum.

    We had a little chick that got kicked around a lot during hatching and got stuck in his shell. I slowly helped him out and he was covered in the super glue stuff. Today I took him out of the incubator to try and get more of the stuff off him before moving him in with his brothers and sisters...

    cracked egg day 7

    So today while candling for my class one of my bantam eggs took a bump and the large end of the egg has a pink size depression and cracks. The embryo is still moving. Should I seal it with candle wax and hope for the best? Do you think it could survive? I know it was early in the process...

    Please help! What should I do?

    Thank you for your reply. I made the little "shoes" out of cardboard but when I stepped out for lunch he passed away. I think he got on his back and then couldn't get himself up. I was so sad and felt really horrible about it. Stephanie
