Hi, I'll start off with saying I'm new on here and accidentally posted for Guinea help on my intro message. I'm anxious to learn about hatching Guinea eggs & their care since this is new to me.
At this time I have 2 Little Giant incubators, and my hubby & I plan to get a cabinet one soon. I have 47 Guinea eggs in them and they are attempting to hatch out, only there's no real progress since 9 a.m. yesterday. One has had it's beak sticking out & breathing through the hole for a very long time. I have had the incubator's set on 99.5 to 100.5 this whole time and added a wet sponge to raise the humidity. I took them out of the turner on day 25 (yesterday), when I noticed a few starting to pip. Is there anything I can do to help them? I read if they aren't out by 24 hours, they will not survive. Any advice is appreciated.
