I used clear packing tape on one of my buttons that just hatched. It seems to be working and the other chicks can't see it.

I tried the band aid but no go. Scotch tape is working so far

. Tomorrow I am doing the other chick with the same problem

EVERY single hatching of my eggs,, the very LAST chick to hatch ALWAYS has a bum hip/leg/foot thingy to where they cant even stand,,,,,, EVERY hatch,, i need to start really watching, and see if its from 1 roo and hen, or just 1 roo,,,, he'll be suppah

Lol! I have another egg pipping. should be #24. He took off the tape so I am going to try again tomorrow.

It can also be caused by the chick taking too long to hatch, or I believe from the humidity as well.
