So, I called the woman I bought the hatching eggs from.. she said if they hadn't hatched by today, to crack open the air sac and to see what was going on.. so i did it. the first egg didn't fully develop, i only made it to the second egg before i nearly had a heart attack. the air sac was VERY WHITE, so as i went to moisten it it opened a little and started bleeding. the chicken is not making any noise, but the membrane is now moving up and down.. i'm not sure if the chicken can breathe or not. but it really doesnt look like the chick is ready to come out. there are still plenty of veins attached to the membrane. this is my first time hatching chicks, obviously. I knew I should have trusted my gut and gave them a few more days
now i'm not sure what to do. PLEASE HELP.
btw, today is their 24th day.
