Ok so my hen was sitting on 8 eggs and she hatched 4. She left the other 4 eggs behind last night or this morning and I didn't know! They were cold but I opened one anyway to see if they were dead. The one I opened was alive! I didn't damage the membrane but I saw it breathing through the membrane. The membrane is still white but it is wrapped pretty closely around the chick. Should I open these eggs or let them be? I rushed inside and put them in the incubator with my eggs due in 4 days. Went ahead and bumped my humidity to 60% and opened the air vents. Should I open the eggs and try to help the chick get out or should I leave it be?? The chick doesn't seem to be moving anymore. Help please!
