chGoo coming from pip hole...

[hurricanearran]

We have a couple dozen eggs in the bator which started to pip last night. Four hatched so far!!! The rest are pipping and zipping.

One of the pips made a second hole in her shell and there is yellowish goo pushing out of the hole? Any thoughts?

Can you see movement? Does the chick look like it has clear access to air?

There willl be goo leakage when they come out---you just want to make sure the chick is positioned well enough it can breathe, rather than drowning in the goo.

The original pip is still open and clear. The second pip is about a 1/4 of the way around the shell where the goo is pushing out. As far as I can tell, it looks like the waste sac that the other hatched chicks have left behind. I don't see any movement but it's hard to tell because of the other 4 hatched chicks running around shacking the shack!
