Chick is moving in egg, but no pipping yet

thank you so much! i also opened the other 3 eggs, and they were all fully developed, but did not not hatch. i guess thinking of it as weeding out the weak ones is a good perspective. Just sad though.

it was like this when i candelled it last night. so its been more than 8 hours this way. Im just extra concerned because i had 2 hatch with the yolk sac not fully absorbed. one died before it was completely out of the egg and the other died this morning, almost 24 hours later

You are intervening where you should not. It concerns me that two of your hatched chicks died. This shouldn’t happen. Have you kept them warm constantly??
