My head is pounding, I swear I am having major withdrawal symptoms, I need to go to bed and suffocate myself with a pillow..... nite all
 
Ok I feel like crud and need some advice.... I am at the end of day 22 with no pips on my last two eggs. The Ameraucana eggs have been hard to candle so it is hard to tell how the chick is doing... I gave up pulled the shells and two remaining eggs and put them in a bag as trash. I started washing out the hatcher bator when I heard chirping from the bag...

I grabbed out the two eggs, one clearly complaining, and put them in the incubator with the turner until the other could warm back up. The one egg has been quiet and has a loose air cell, don't have much hope for it but the other definitely has a live chick in it. I tapped on the shell and broke a small hole but the inner membrane looks pinkish and I was afraid it would bleed if I broke the membrane, so I put it back in.

NOW WHAT?? I know I should have left them alone.,,
 
Phil, all those cats are still swimming and yes, walleye can't be beat on the dinner plate. We catch a lot of them. But, a 50+ blue will rock your socks. I get a bigger satisfaction letting them go.

Bubbles, I appreciate and respect your comments. 100% of our meat comes from this farm or is wild. Honestly, we eat way more elk than beef. And we have a few hundred head of cattle I could cut out at any time. Elk is actually preferred by all in this house.

Where did you make a hole ? It's not unusual for the membrane to be pink, but I'd take a damp q-tip and moisten the membrane so you can see through it and check for veins.
