So, a majority of my chicks under the broody have hatched. But, there is still one pipper left. The hen keeps leaving the egg and I keep putting it under her. I enlarged the pip whole so I could see if it was alive. And it is. I don't have a bator(my friend is borrowing it) what should I do?

Anyone?
 
sometimes a broody will abandon a late hatcher and it is the way of nature! sorry :(

If you had your incubator I would say to put the egg in the bator with high humidity.

is there anything else you could use to keep it warm and moist laying around?

The best thing I can think of is to put it under a heat plate wrapped in a wet paper towel...
 

I am surprised Whites didn't tell ya! Put it in the oven! Turn it on low (I will look it up, but for now) put it on 150* with the door open. Don't forget to put it in a pan!
Farmer's wives did it often! Women put them in their bras sometimes.

Duh!(stupid me) Put it under a heatlamp with a wet paper towel!
