Do Cayuga take longer? (Hatching)

[Miss Lydia]

Air cell dipped more?

I just checked them again and I see what looks like a small shadow on the egg where they should pip.

So they are moving at their own pace which is good.

Any update ?

One died.
I saw what looked like red lines across and it wasn't moving so I decided to pop it open. It managed to poke through the air cell but something went wrong. There was blood everywhere.
Now we're down to 3 and it looks like one poked through as well.

So sorry you lost one, but sounds like progress is being made so hopefully they are on their way to hatch now.

Had to use the flash for the first photo to show the blood.

Sounds like maybe baby got a big vein when internal pip happened
Sorry for the loss
Let gross fingers all goes well for the last 3

I haven't seen any difference in the other 2 so I will be giving them a few days more before I do anything. Luckily they're still moving around
The one that looks ready to hatch is still poking at the shell a bit.

I know these babies are close to hatching but we had a split second of no power. Even though we should be fine, any tips in case we lose power for longer?
