As of right now I assisted the hatch. Idk. I got scared. I’m thinking he’s premature. His eyes are closed. I put him in a little cup to try to help…he is breathing and just moved his neck like that. I tried giving him sugar water. He didn’t want it.
It is prematurely out of egg and hasn't absorbed yolk. All you can do now is leave in incubator and hopefully it can absorb yolk. Hoping the best for you and your hatchling.
I whistle backI used to sing to my beebies while they were chirping in their egg shells … my husband would joke that “he couldn’t believe we didn’t have more quitters”
Every time I stopped singing, the lil guys started chirping as if to confirm I hadn’t left or that someone was out there, ready to welcome them
Chirping is good
It’s been almost 8 hours. His sack is absorbing and he’s very active but not standing yet. His eyes are open
he died the next morning.I once had a duckling hatch prematurely with the egg yolk not yet entirely absorbed ... actually I think it was a straggler who got knocked out of his eggshell by all his rambunctious siblings, before he was quiet ready ... anyway, I left him in the hatcher while I moved everyone else in the brooder and by morning he was right as rain
Sorry sweetie :'(
