I have a little chicken egg (one of 6 left). I swore he had internally pipped a day and a half ago so I went step by step through all necessary processes (I found of coarse on here). However when I opened up the air cell to make sure the inner membrane wasnt covering his beaks I noticed he hadnt pipped at all and there was still blood vessels. I put coconut oil, moistened and put him back but it seems he was barely breathing and moving!! Someone please help, what do I do?
P.S. I helped in the first place because I could no longer hear the baby making any noise for a long while. The inner membrane is still in tact. Should I just leave her?
 
Thank you so much for your help. I could see the inner membrane going up-and-down like she had pipped a little bit and then I found a little tiny hole that she really hadn't put her beak through so I broke it open there was no bleeding and I pulled it over her beak and nostrils and I put her back and warmed her up I think I'm gonna try this saran wrap thing. Then I prayed over her and stuck her back in and now she's moving, but not a ton. I think she just is really tired or had the membrane over her beak for quite some time so hopefully I will have a " handicapped"chicken on my hands.
