Clear blob coming from hatching egg!

What is this!?

Anyone?

Looks like egg white or something. What is your humidity at? Chicken eggs, correct?

Very odd, never seen that before.
Is the chick moving?

Is this your first hatch @Nigel27 ?

Might think about assisting.

It hatched fine! there was a twenty hour power outage on day eleven of this batch so my hopes weren’t high but there are more than ten so far!

“SHE” actually lol, hatched like a champ. I had one hatch like a champ, really quick zip but hadn’t fully absorbed its yolk sack and it popped. Very alert chick, so I put it in a short jar with natural anti-everything ointment and preparation-h smeared on a paper towel in the bottom of the jar put it back in the bator and it shrunk and is now a giant dried up belly button. It seems to be doing really well considering.

I’m quite torn when it comes to assisted hatching, I like to wait a long time unless it’s obviously shrink wrapped and vessels have receded. I’ve got a very healthy hen and rooster that I assisted last year. Really glad I did. I’ve also assisted hatch and wished I hadn’t

Assisting is personal preference, I applaud to everyone that does it when there confident enough to do so. I let nature work it's course for the strongest to survive.
