[Rocket Raley]

Hi, I am with you on this. I have one that finally got his/her butt out of the shell at 5 am this morning. We named him/her "Midnight" for keeping us up all night.

Midnight is a black rosecomb.

I have 6 hatched and 5 still in the bator that have pipped 1 has a big yolk sack. I don't look for it to make it. The other 5 2 are almost out but the membrane keeps drying out on me and the other 3 are not making too much progress you can see their beaks poking out and hear cheeping but the membranes are white and tough. It is like the just dont have enough to get out. I have wet the membrans without getting it in their noses like it says but they still wont come out and they keep drying out on me humidity is suppose to be 70 is what the hygrometer says

The membrane may be wetter inside the egg, but just dry outside where it's exposed to the air, so that may not be your problem. They may just be taking their time; it's hard to say what's going on sometimes.
