Hands on hatching and help

[jenniferlamar70]

I don't consider it zipping until it starts making progress around the egg.

It started zipping right after I posted lol. Hatched a cute little white one. Now there is a third zipping lol

That is very interesting. Thank you. I will look into that. Honestly, I've been really hesitant to get anymore shipped eggs because they cost so much and the risk of damage during shipping is so high.
Ravyn!!! Where have you been?? I've been thinking of you.

I tend to stick close to the sludge of the pond... keeps me outta trouble... mostly...

How are you doing???

We have two more fluffing out in the hatcher. Both look like paints. One more that's maybe trying to zip not sure. One last one that just externally pipped a few hours ago. There are 2 that haven't done anything. I don't think those are going to hatch but I'll give them a few days just in case.

Hey guys emergency here. I finally candled one of the eggs that haven't pipped yet. It hasn't internally pipped either. All the eggs have hatched except 3. One dis and one is pipped soon to hatch. This one hasn't done anythimg. I can see it barely breathing. Not the healthy breathing we normally see but shallow. What do I do? Should I try to help it and if I do how? I don't think it can hatch on its own. Thanks.

Honestly, Both I had in the past that looked like that was shrink wrapped and died in the shell. I don't normally promote going into an unpipped egg, especially with no internal pip, but with the others all in the hatch stage, and that looking like that, I'd probably take the chance, but I wouldn't count on saving it. But that's just me.

Ok thanks amy. That's what I was thinking too. I think i will Adleast try. Wish me luck cause I'm terrified right now.

A friend asked me to do a cake for her foster son's bday. Easiest cake I've ever done! Lol If I were to do it for myself, I would have made realistic looking fondant rocks. Lol

Well you were right @AmyLynn2374.
It was shrink wrapped. Unfortunately it was already gone. I think what I was seeing move was fluid. That's why it looked so funny. Geez I wish I could have saved it.
