Chick pipped with beak out, but not zipping.

I think maybe not helping is more responsible. In the last more natural. But I was dying to know who was inside those eggs, and since I don't have the roo anymore I will never get more of these same babies. All 10 are sleeping in the brooder next to me and they look so adorable.

Hatching is stressful, I'm ready to take a big long break from doing it again.

You think hatching is stressful you just try laying an egg everyday.
Glad things worked out. Happy day, Happy day, happy, happy day.

I'm glad I only release one once a month, trying to catch that egg has been stressful enough!
