This is awesome newsThank you for the replies, I did eventually have to do a full assist but gave her lots of time to make sure everything was absorbed. Both little ones are out and running around now.
Congrats on the new babies

They shouldn’t get shrink wrapped if there is no hole to the outside.Here’s the 3 that got stuck. The first one is the one in the picture above who tried to get out with her leg.
They do have some membrane stuck to them.
I am a bit concerned as I don’t know if anyone else is going to hatch and I’m worried if they were going to they may be shrink wrapped also? One does look as if some membrane detached but I don’t see pips so I can’t make a safety hole? As with the others the eggs are just dark inside so it’s hard to know if there is any movement but a dark egg indicates they probably did fully develop..
Thanks for thatThey shouldn’t get shrink wrapped if there is no hole to the outside.
You can take a warm cloth or Q tip and gently rub at that goo stuck to babies.
I love the colouring
I know it can be hard to see movement at the end but you should see some shadowing along the air cell
Have you looked for bruising on the shell in case baby is trying At other points of the egg
@WVduckchick @Crazy Maizie you able to helpThanks for that
The first picture is the one that I’m concerned the membrane could be detached, although it’s also possible a chick has pipped in here. The second picture Shows something in the air cell but there is no movement. In the 3rd picture that air cell has changed to become pulled to the side. I had 8 others hatch also and didn’t really see anything different in those eggs unless the chick was clearly pipped. Although the 2nd picture I had eggs look like this before pipping but there was movement there in those eggs.
I’ve added the pictures in case anyone has any idea what’s going on.
What day are they on?Thanks for that

We’re on day 21/22 first one didn’t hatch until day 18/19 so it’s been a late hatch overall, with the last one hatching about 24 hours ago.What day are they on?
