HELP urgent egg that is making noise!

However, I’m wondering why she keeps rejecting it. That could mean something is wrong with the chick. But maybe not.

I did wonder that but also it has been 48 hours since the first chick so thought maybe it was just because of that???

I’ve had Broodies knock out eggs that had healthy chicks, after hatching most.

How cold is it?

You can put it in your bra.

34.8 degrees on the surface. it has stopped peeping though -not sure if resting or not made it. Just reading thehuge article on assisted hatching Human babies are so much easier to deliver!

That gives me some hope.

I hope my roughish handling earlier won't have hurt it

This is going to sound ridiculous but I think the oven is your best bet! Put it on the lowest temperature possible, use a thermometer to get the oven around 37-38 but keep a strong eye on it that the oven doesn't over heat.
I've used all kinds of things, even hatched chicks in an electric frying pan once! You just need something that will generate a little heat

OK now has the damp paper towel with the warm cubes under it and a normal towel over the top.

and it has just started cheeping again not dead

I think if you make a tiny safety hole in the airsac end of the egg that will be important so the chick doesn't run out of oxygen. The chick should be able to hatch itself from that

And I mean very little hole

OK so we just discovered our fabulous Neff oven does exact temps down low so can set it for 38 putting it in now!

Eeeeeek really?????????

38 feels so not warm - is that what you'd set an incubator at? Shall I add a cup of boiling water to help the humidity?
