**IF** however YOU DO NOT HAVE AN INTERNAL PIP AND YOU CAN’T HEAR CHIRPING and YOU DO NOT see MOVEMENT please proceed to The Float Test ~ Checking Egg Viability. Give Eggs A Full 24 Hrs Overdue Before Float Testing ONLY AFTER CANDLING and NO Internal pips and NO internal MOVEMENT or CHIRPING! This procedure takes very little equipment Or time to do and Is Easy To Perform. If your egg is still viable, place back in the bator and wait! https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/383525/float-testing-checking-egg-viability-for-late-or-overdue-hatching

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

But I think that link that Sally gave you explains its very well. Good Luck!

What kind of egg is it, Jessie?

Half silkie, but dunno what else. It's acutely only about 3/4 the size of the other eggs.

Will the float test work if the chick dies right before hatch? It wouldn't seem like it would...
