Well, this thread has taken off in all directions.

Great Job @Dona Worry!

I don't know how long the egg was abandoned. It was cold to the touch.
How long after they cheap do they come out?

I gotta know, did you get it to hatch?

Hatched with assistance. Needed a couple of days of TLC, but has been successfully reunited with the rest of the chicks and bonded with her momma.

Yay! Good Work.

I agree with the bra, I have heard it successful due to the chick hearing the human heartbeat, and the similarity to dampness and humidity. And temperature try that!

Awesome! Great idea - the bra, that is! Unless you have to go to work somewhere. "Excuse me, my egg is hatching" LOL
I just used a pipe cleaner to cure splay foot in a baby guinea! Do what you have to do! Sneaking babies under mama in the dead of night works very well!

Heating pad + damp towel???

Many years ago, I heard a story that said a woman had hatched an egg in her bra. No kidding, but I don't know the details. I think it could be done if the chick was about to hatch..

Also, I have successfully put a newly hatched chick under a hen who has chicks about the same age. She doesn’t even realize. I have even done it with parrot chicks. Do it when they are asleep, middle of the night.
