Today is day 26 and I have an unhatched egg with a chick inside. I'm attaching the candled pictures of the egg here. I had incubated five fertile eggs and all the five had chicks formed within. Three hatched on day 21 and day 22 while an egg pipped on day 23 . But, unfortunately the fourth chick that pipped dies while inside. Now, I have this fertile egg and I wanna know if it will hatch.

Do you see movement? If so yes if not it could be just resting but that’s really late! I have had mine go to day 25 so....

Thanks for your reply. I didn't movements in any of my eggs post day sixteen but still three out of five hatched. Even now, I don't see any kind of movement but I could see an internal pip. This was made about a couple of days ago. Since this is day 26 , I had to post a thread asking if it could hatch anymore.
 
Good to hear that. But mine is past that 😟so should I doubt it?
You said you saw an internal pip? If so, leave it in the bator. What has you humidity/temp being through you incubation, and lockdown? Did you check it with an additional thermometer to make sure it was accurate?

Internal pip was made a couple of days ago. All through the incubation, my temperature was appropriate (37.5C) and yes, I did verify it with a medical thermometer but unfortunately I didn't have a hygrometer to check the humidity.

If it internally pipped a few days ago, and has made no more progress, then it probably didn't make it. Good job with the rest of your hatch!
 
I understand 😟Thanks for your reply though!!!!
I am no pro, so don't take my word for it! I have never hatched myself, I only know what I know from here. @MGG will be the most helpful, even though she will probably give you the same answer as me, she is more experienced and can make a more knowledgeable call!
