Tomorrow is day 18 for me. I opened the incubator to unbunch the eggs and I checked a few without picking them up, including one I was watching because the air cell was already starting to dip. Well, it was nothing like this the last time I looked. The air cell now takes up most of the egg, the chick is internally pipped and cheeping. The chick looks very small in proportion to the egg. It's wiggling, but I don't know if it will be able to pip externally. It looks like there's too much space for it in the egg.
My other eggs are on track to hatch on time. What should I do about this early bird? For now, I changed humidity to 65% but my other eggs aren't really ready for that. I don't have a seperate hatcher.
ETA: these are chicken eggs
