Day 23 no pips

[AmberNiColeman]

This is our first time incubating. We did a very small hatch - 4 eggs. My son got it for Christmas and was just excited to use it. 2 of the eggs stopped developing around day 14. The other two looked great. One day 21 one pipped in the evening and within 2 hours we had a chick. Day 23 and the other one has no pips, I did candle to see if there was an internal pip, but there is not. The air sac has grown from the candling I did the day they went on lockdown, but other than that no changes. Should I give it another day or so? Count it a loss? Try to help it? Our incubator is a nurture right 360. Temp is 99.5, before lockdown humidity was between 45-50%, since lockdown 65-70%. These were the recommendations in the instructions.

Do you see veins or movement in the remaining egg?

It is just blackness with a good size air sac. It looks the same as the other one that hatched.

Does it smell? Is it sweating? IF not, I'd wait a couple more days and if nothing happens, prep an area with disposable table covering & carefully (with gloves) open it slowly. Hopefully it's a late bloomer

No smell, no sweating. Thank you. I'll give it a couple more days
