Emergency!! Positioned wrong/Assisted hatching! Please help!

Shes so happy to be out of that shell. Like i said, she keeps scooting away from it trying to get it off of her butt. She's so much tinier than the older ones. I think she will need a while in that incubator before she's ready to take on the brood. :)

I always worry about the newest one being in with the older ones they can peck on them too much and they need time to get going. Maybe put the last one that hatched in with this one so they can cuddle. Not trying to tell you what to do, but these newest hatched ones need time to get on their feet and legs.

The problem with that, Miss Lydia, is that other new guy is tall enough to hit his head on the heating element. Baby cant get up yet and she's in pain from her umbilical cord. Maybe (since we have two heat lamps) we can make a second nest for her.
little brother is also getting a tad bit aggressive (because his big brother picks on him) and he's starting to learn how to hold his own. I'm afraid he might do that with her..
On the other hand, after number four is hatched, the two will be able to stay in the bator together for a bit. So (HOPEFULLY) she wont be alone for long..
