Well, you can, but you have to make ABSOLUTLY sure it actually needs it. Most people help too soon, and you can kill the chick. Also the ones that you do help are often weak and sometimes die anyway. There is an assisted hatching guide you should look at on this site by Sally sunshine. It explains things very well.On as a totally uniformed person reading a ton to get ready for my first attempt with the New Years hatch any advice?
Second, I gather it is bad, but I haven't found anywhere here why you can't help a pipped chick that seems to not finish hatching. So is it attachment related?
