Good pictures of internal pips?

[hernameisoyster]

We have one lavender egg that has gone into lockdown on Wednesday and my partner is concerned about the chick due to some past experiences. We can hear quiet scratching but no peeping, so we don't think this is an internal pip yet, but he is wanting to follow Pyxis' excellent guide on an emergency hole if it is time. We have to open our incubator to add water so he took the opportunity to get a picture of the state right now.

It was hard to tell if there was any movement in the air sac.

Hello just seeing this now. How did it go or is it going? Your photo looks like shadowing at the bottom of the air cell which comes just before the internal pip usually. Here is a photo of an internal pip if you still need it. The little triangle on the left side of the photo is the beak.
