Chick Piped at skinny side of egg! What can I do?? URGENT HELP!!

[CluckAcres]

I just had a chick pip at skinny side of egg. Will this cause problems for it to get out of egg? Never had this problem before. Is there anything I can do?

Not to sugar coat it, yes there will likely be a problem. I do not recommend helping the chick out, it will likely die with or without help. That's not to say that said chick won't hatch healthy and normal though, but I wouldn't count on it. Sorry for your stress during your hatch!

it has the biggest pip so far out of the others. Its got a good size hole knocked out of the shell. It was the last to pip as well.

Well out of all the ones that have piped so far this one is doing the best. its has a big hole out and the outside membrane has a tear in it and can see a little beak every once in awhile!! This this one will make it.

Hearing chickie peeps is supposed to encourage them - do you have any young peepsters that might oblige?

There is a few chicks in the incubator that are chirping.
