keep the paper towel damp with warm water in a spray bottle,if it is going to hatch it should be in the next few hours.If it hatches make sure it is completly dry and put it under the hen at dark,keep a close eye on it as it will be a lot smaller than the others,you may have to rsise it if it can't keep up.I have helped them hatch as a last resort

The thing is its been peeping for two days and no crack. I also don't know where the head is because momma hen has kicked all the eggs around because she had no care for them

I have a question on development point of chick in egg,
Today is the 8th day of egg being in incubator and since I had brinsea mini Eco incubator , the temperature had been fluctuating . Today I have candled the eggs and some of the eggs are partially dark and the rest of the egg is see through although the chick are moving inside but very slow motion . The other eggs have veins all over and the embryo moving in fast pace . Does it mean that some of them are developing faster than the other or the slow moving eggs are about to die.
I thought that on day 8 I should still see some veins but as I have said some of the eggs partially dark but embryo moving slow but the other part of the egg is empty , does it also mean that the chicks are attached to the shall ?

not hearing peeps anymore, no cracks or anything ? It's been peeping for two days and no progress with coming out what do I do

So my chicken had a baby 5 days early and yesterday I noticed she abandoned the eggs. I was about to throw them out when I heard a peep and it moved in my hand. I quickly put it back. The next day she wasnt sitting on them. The egg was cold, no peeps but I could feel a little movement. What do I do? I don't have an incubator so that won't work. I put a wet towel around it with a heat lamp. I'm keepin it at 99 degrees. Once I put it in the heat and it started moving wildly inside the egg and peeped. Now it's quiet. Will it be alright? Do I need to do anything else? How long do you think it'll hatch
It's been under the heat lamp and my watch for 3 hours. I hear the occasional peep and move but no crack. It's been doing this for 2 days. I'm afraid it won't last much longer if its taking forever.

Should I help it out ???

Idk. It's only one egg. It has peeped but no external pip. I don't know if it's ok or not since it's been kind of quiet
