yesterday when i was candeling a silkie egg. it tapped the flashlight a little too rough and cracked the egg. i kept hearing a peeping noise..but didnt see any eggs hatching in the incubator. now this morning that egg that was cracked was def. making the peeping noise. does this chick need help hatching ? is that possible what do i do ???? i dont want it to die please help ! i can see its beek but nothing is happening but it peeping
 
It will be alright, when is the due date? Is anything coming out of the crack, yolk, blood etc? I have had an egg land on another egg and they both cracked but they both hatched as well...

If it pushed it's beak through the shell on it's own, then it was fixing to hatch. The only time you really hear peeping is soon before they are piping. If there is a little blood, that's ok. Just leave it be and see what happens, just check and make sure the egg membrane doesn't dry out, if it does take a damp finger and wet it down.
