This morning I attempted to help a chicken hatch from the egg and I thought he was ready, but I drew blood. I put a dry paper towel on him to stop bleeding and then put the egg back in the incubator. This was my fist time doing assisted hatching and I read the article but it wasn't very clear on what to do if I raw blood. I do not know the breed of the egg and he pipped yesterday morning with no help and made no progress within 12 hours, I know most chicks can take a while to start zipping but I had already lost 2 in the pipping/zipping stage. As of right now there are no other pipped, zipped or hatched chicks in the incubator. please help me.
