Cracked egg

[Shoptopodi]

It's been 17/18 days, one chicken was sitting on the egg. Today i saw she left the box and the egg has a crack. I don't see any movement (i know it's not enough time, just hoping) and i see there's still liquid inside. My guess is may be some other chicken cracked it. Is there any way to save it? Is there anything i can do? I don't see any blood or liquid coming out either.
Thanks in advance.

Don't fret. I'd put a small patch of medical tape over the hole and then seal it with some liquid skin bandage. If there was no hole and just cracks, I'd just use the liquid skin as that has antiseptic properties. But with such a hole, this one is more vulnerable.
This has worked best for me over the years.

I agree with ChickenCanoe.
Do you have an incubator you could put it in? That would be best. If not it's ok though. Bandage it up.

Thanks @ChickenCanoe and @MGG . I don't have incubator. I'll patch it up.

Ok. Good luck! I hope it hatches. I've had pretty good survival rates with patches eggs. Esp. that late in incubation. They're stronger at that stage.
