Chick has stopped zipping?

[Kellywellyboot]

hello

Absolute rookie here, I have an egg that’s pipped at 7pm last night on day 19, it’s broke only bigger hole in the shell since (its 16pm UK time) it’s tweeting and shaking it’s egg like mad and just poking through the small hole ?

Since it’s only day 20 - had a mix of polish and bantams - shall I wait until tomorrow? See if he’s made any progress ? I guess I answered my own question only that he’s tweeting like crazy in the egg.

Advice And guidance so welcome,

Thanks

He’s tweeting and shaking the egg like he stuck ..

How many other eggs are in your bator?
Where is your humidity?

 

[Kellywellyboot]

Only 3 other, humidity flux 69-72%

Only thing this pipped at the side of the egg and it’s turn it a little I can see the browning of the membrane where he’s poking

Here’s a photo, you can see the brown stains on the outer shell

It’s cherping really loud and clearly too ...

It often takes them some hours of turning in the egg to fully break out.
If it's cheeping it's living and presumably trying to get out. I would wait a while before intervening.

And also, in two hours it would of reached the 24hour mark from pip

Ok sounds good, will wait some more. Thanks for reply

Looking at the picture the pip hole isn't where I would expect to see it; it's usually at the fat end of the egg.
