Will cooking oil really soften the membrane ?
I always used the wet towel, or just dip my finger in the water and apply it.
but I am open to better methods.
with the vaseline, that scares me a little.
what if you plug up the nostrils of the chick ?
it would suffocate , wouldn't it ?
yesterday I turned off the incubators. what a relief..
well that didn't last long. just now I got an emergency call. a friend's duck got killed last night. she has eggs due in about a week.
one of the bators is back on, now.
maybe I will get a chance to try the oil treatment. many times ducks get stuck, too.
now I am almost looking forward to it. LOL
