Update!!! So we candled at day 9 to check development.. All were developing and 1 had a crack.. I tossed the cracked one and only peeked inside when she got up each day to make sure none were broken.. Yesterday she hatched out 9 babies of the 11 left .. Today the 9 babies are doing great and 2 remaining eggs have not pipped.. I know she probably needs to be up with babies by tomorrow afternoon (48 hrs after hatch)
IF the eggs haven't hatched and she doesn't get up.. Should I encourage her to get up? If she gets up on her own and they haven't hatched.. Should I pip the eggs myself? What are some suggestions at this point with 9 of 11 hatched and we're 24 hours + after the first chick hatched..?
