This is day 23, 5 hatched and 4 did not. While check viability before getting rid of the 4 I can hear taping in one egg. I don't see and eternal pip. What do I do now? Thanks for any help.
In my personal experience those that did not hatch most likey will not. If you can hear taping still in that one egg I would get him out NOW. But that's just me. My clutch just hatched yesterday and I got 14/18. The 14th chick I had to help get out because he was drying out and getting week. Now he's out and thriving. If I were you I would help out the tapping chick. But if you see ANY blood STOP. Hope it all works out and congrats on your new chicks
Yes. Candle the egg and find out where the egg sac starts and pip right there. Go slowly. It's worth a shot cause he probably most likely won't hatch on his own. He needs your help! Keepme updated please
