Chick needs help!

[Margot30]

I have a clutch of eggs under a hen, due to hatch tomorrow. 1 has already hatched. It seems 1 egg had been kicked out and it has become accidentally damaged. The shell has come partly off and the inner lining split a little. Blood has come out of this split. The chick is chirping. My question is this, how long do I wait before intervening? It has had to be removed from the mother because she was pecking the blood

I hope to hatch some chicks with a broody hen someday. I don't have an answer for you, but I am signing on to this thread to read thoughts of others. Good luck.

Keep the membrane damp, and dab the blood if she is still bleeding put some cornflour/flour on any vessels. AND KEEP HER WARM

when i had an open abandoned egg i broke off the whole big end and basically watched her for hours SHE HATCHED and it was a coturnix quail egg that was under a broody quail but one chick hatched yadayada basically DONT GIVE UP KEEP MEMBRANES MOIST AND KEEP HER WARM
