Will a hen assist a chick trying to get out of its shell?

Sorry for the photo bomb... internet is acting up, so wanted to upload them before it goes out. Will add notes later.

@AmyLynn2374 congrats on the development! That's awesome. On the subscription thing, make sure you are on "activity" tab and not "threads" tab (I hope its not vice versa lol can't remember on mobile) but mine got mysteriously switched once and did the same thing as yours. switched it back and all good!

When I click on the activity thread it says I have no subscribed threads, but on the threads tab it will show the number.

good job!

I figured it out!!!! In the activities tab there's like a sub tab, where it has articles, forums and something else. That tab was switched to articles instead of forums!

So my hatch is over and I got three ACs and five keets. Of the five, one looks to be lavender (I think), two look like they're pinto, one looks like maybe royal purple, and one looks to perhaps be lavender pinto. So that's not bad! And I set the others that I ordered last night. Of course the darn power went out, but I keep hand warmers on hand to deal with that so the incubator didn't get too cold. I'll be candling tonight to check if my eggs made it.

I believe she will, once it has pipped on its own
