:goodpost: Glad he made it..:love

You may need to open it some more.. same as before. If you see blood, stop, if its still chewing and active leave it be... WVduckchick is around and she's awesome! Best of luck and I hope to see a fluffy chick in the morning! :fl :frow

:frow So glad you stopped in! Im gonna have to head to bed and hate to leave the op hangin..:oops:

That's ok.. as long as its still chewing its right where it needs to be... just keep checkin on it and when you feel ok doing it, peal some shell back. And if you see anything that worries you, snap a pic and post it and ask away..

Your very welcome! You're welcome too..:) Deffinetly keep us posted and don't hesitate to ask questions or just hang out and chat if it starts makin ya nuts..:oops: It always makes me nuts. :gig None of us ever hope to.. but its good to be able to! :love

You can go to the thread and tagg casportpony and ask if she can help the op. :fl

Ok.. :lau much better! :D I think at this point its best to watch and wait.. It can be difficult at best sometimes to know when to help more and when to wait. Paitence is your best friend at this point!;)

I dont have any experience with egg bound hens. Try tagging casportpony. Good luck, I hope it goes well! :fl

Thats a little high but I dont think its too bad... it should be closer to 101 but not higher than 102. Turn it down a little and watch it. Keep the membrane moist. Give it 30 mins or so and try peeling a tiny bit more back.

:highfive::yesss:

Humidity is ok.... is it a still air or have a fan?

Im glad you were able to help the little out. :love Did it do well after?

Looks great! The membrane isnt too brown and the beak is right there , so it can breath well.. i meant to tell you to stop if you saw any bleeds, you did perfect! :highfive: Ok, now what is the humidity level? Also the temp..

Take your time and take a pic when you finish and post it. Makes it easier to help.:)

This one is my absolute go to! :love https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/guide-to-assisted-hatching-for-all-poultry.72886/

Ok. Thats really good. No more chewing is a good indication that its fully absorbed the yolk.. Yes, take it out long enough to chip some shell away so you can see whats goin on in there, lay it on a soft cloth so there's less chance of dropping it. Dont let it get cool tho and be sure to close...

Also.. if you can see its beak, is it opening and closing it like chewing?

What is the humidity at? You can gently peal back some egg shell and apply a bit of coconut oil or Neosporin and see if there are any veins showing in the membrane.. Just go slow.. chip it away in small pieces.

Can you post a pick? :fl Have you candled the egg?
