So there is this egg that my broody kept kicking out of the nest and won't sit on. She's on 4 others w/ 4 hatched and won't sit on this one so we thought it was a dud. We candled it and saw no movement so I figured it was dead an was going to throw it out. My daughter was curious so we decided to put a little crack in it to see if the chick was fully developed and died or never developed. Put a small hole in and it appeared the chick was formed but dead... THEN!!!! It starts moving! There is a small movement every little while. I now have it under a heat lamp since mama won't sit on it.... do you think it will be ok or is there something I should do now that I put a hole in it! The others started hatching 4 days ago so it should be ready.... What do you think? Help please?
