The chick pipped on Monday 6/4/18 but hasn't made much progress in 2 days the hole has grown to about thumbnail width but has stayed that size for a day and the membrane has turned brown now. Is there anything I should do to help it. The chick has been peeping and wiggling it's beak but it's not trying to break anymore of the shell .
 
If the membran is brown you may need to gently open it enough to lightly coat it with coconut oil or Neosporin or vasline to keep it moist. What is the humidity in the bator?
 
He may be ok till you get home. :hugs
We'll keep :fl along with you!
Thx. When I get home do I just completely take him out once I make sure theirs no veins or yolk still connected or just open it enough for him to get out himself. He's able to breath and kept wiggling when he heard peeps so he's probably ok for a while .
