Can you still see it’s alive? Might be time to intervene more

Good can you still see veins?

No, but it’s hard to tell. When I put the olive oil on last night, I accidentally nicked a piece of the shell/membrane as I was trying to make sure it all had oil. It started bleeding a little. I dried it up best I could.

Have you tried very slowly picking shell away? You know to stop if you see blood.

No I haven’t

 

[Miss Lydia]

If you can peel shell away very small bits at a time the duckling maybe to get itself out with a little help.

This if you see no more veins. Is it still yawning? That’s another thing making sure the yolk is fully absorbed. So it’s a risk helping but if there is no chance of it hatching with out help it’s a decision you have to make.
