Thank you all for your advice! I wet the membrane with some water so I could get a better look at things and the blood vessels were definitely still open. I checked every few hours on it and moistened the membrane a bit and eventually I could tell the vessels have closed off and the chick began to breathe under the membrane (best way I can describe it is it looked like it was blowing air into a paper bag, it would expand with air then wrap around the chick) so i made an artificial pip around its beak to make sure it was getting fresh air. I kept the humidity super high, around 80% and little by little pulled the membrane back and off. It finally made its way out this afternoon! Healthy and completely fine!

So happy.You were so patient and determined. Not to mention how determind the chick is to live. It's Gods miracle just to have witness a living being born. Thats why I love to incubate. I'm always amazed everytime I see a small being emerge from a fragile egg. This was a big miracle. We're all proud of you.praise GOD!!!!.

Thank y’all! I said many a prayers for this little one! He/she is a little more lethargic than I would like my chicks to be so I gave a little bit of sugar water to see if that would help a little bit. So far so good! This is the little guy! Still a little scraggly from the sticky egg but starting to fluff up a bit more!

Got any Nutridrench? It's great for weak chicks. Quick vitamin boost.
