I know it's not just a Christmas-y name, but Cookie seems to come to me, and of course we eat lots of those around the holidays, LOL

I really hope she makes it, Sally!!!!

Keep her wrapped in a wet towel, lightly, like sitting on one, then the rest loosely wrapped over the top. When she no longer bleeds, you can help her out, but until then, make sure humidity is high, and that her beak is clear to breath and that she doesn't shrink wrap. You might still be able to save her!

Sending Good Hatching Vibes to everyone out there with eggs in the incubator!!! It is a stressful process, isn't it...for ALL concerned, both people and chicks!

Good Luck to all!!!

I just had a peek and she is alive yet, still closing her mouth, but not really moving or anything very weak never seen one hold on like her ... didnt open up bator just watched her

Way to go, Sally! Glad you saved her. Give her some time and hopefully, she will make it. I think they wear themselves out totally when they shrink wrap and then they need a while to just sleep it off. Breathless did that, but then by about 10 hours in...she was up toddling around like her clutch mates. Good Luck with her and the rest.

gabrielle -- my Grandmother used to make these things called Fudge Crinkles (chewy cookies) ....name it Crinkles

Or maybe Sugar Plum....or Wassail

Christmas names are fun.

Sally, if it looks like her veins were absorbed, go ahead and peel her out??

What does the humidity need to be for seramas? I'm having the worst time hatching them. I get them to grow but not hatch

I have had the best luck with 35-40% during Days 1-18 and then during lockdown about 62%. As soon as the first one pips I raise it to 65%. That is here in Florida though.
