There was no movement anymore inside the egg so I made a pip in the egg and opened it till the point where I could see the beak. There was no movement inside whatsoever and blood was coming out. Should I remove the egg?

Are u sure there was no movement??

I'd rap it in a damp paper towel and place back in for an hour

I moved, wiggled, shook and tapped the egg and no movement. So I intervened and saw that blood was coming out. A big piece of white membrane came off and I saw a lot moistness (yellow and colorless) inside. I kept the egg inside the bator for so 30 minutes, nothing happened. No movement whatsoever. I saw the same with my other remaining 2 eggs and so I assumed they all dead. I feel devastated because I've bonded with them a lot. This is my first time getting this far and also a very sad experience. I cried a little bit. I removed the eggs and switched the bator off still being very sad . I'm not sure if I'm going to incubate anytime soon again, or ever

Are you sure they was dead?
