Good Morning! I am new to the game of incubation. I have several eggs in an incubator and, although they aren't set to hatch yet, I was wondering if it is alright to help out a chick once they pip. Years ago, as a child, I incubated duck eggs and once they pipped, my mentor and I helped them out by peeling off the shells. I've heard that you shouldn't do this with chickens. I really don't want them to die inside the shells but I don't want to do anything wrong either. I don't like playing God so I need some help beforehand with this dilema.
Thank you in advance!
Stephanie
