Help broody hen & hatching

[Ashcole]

I'm not sure what to suggest about that one.

Depending on what time of day it is where you are, maybe give it a few more hours? That might leave enough time to try assisting before the day is out, if it has not hatched by then.

Thank You, & I’m sorry we had a long day yesterday. I did end up helping the baby after moving it to the “hospital brooder” and it was what I thought to long. Baby was positioned not right so thankfully I decided to help and now little chicklet is running around with its siblings.,

Update we now have 5 healthy chicks, 1 more just hatched which would make 6 as long as it’s okay. This one had a slight bit of maybe yolk or something still attached and not fully absorbed. I tried to tuck baby back into the shell and put in a cup but it’s not working. So I decided to wait and see. It is moving around and in with a chick that was born about 3 hours before..

And mom is sitting on the remaining eggs still that had pipped last night.
