well i had a buff o egg pip tonight. The shell cracked, but the membrain still was in tact. Looked dry and chalk white. Then it rolled it's pip side over facing the mesh wire inside my bator. Will it still be able to pip and zip with the pip hole facing downwards?? Also, i will be removeing a chick in the morning...if the egg is still the same..should i roll it over " pip side up" then mist everything with luke warm water to help sofen the membrane??? Help me out guys!

I think it will just fine, my have rolled all over the place. just give it sometime.you could may be up the humdity by putting in some warm water. i have a bowl of water in my and if the humidity goes down i just add warm water through the vent holes. Good luck

same here... i have a clear little hoze that i squeez down one of the tiny holes with a baby ear washer filled with warm water. I stick the hose inside the rubber ear washer and then just position and push!

Now i have 2 babies this morning, dunno if i should remove the first chick or not now? Im worried about that buff egg. He made a little pit of progress overnight i think i can see.
