@casportpony hatching started last night. One was out and two were externally pipped before I went to bed. One of the pips had zipped out this morning, and the other had started zipping before I left for work. When I got home this evening, the one that had started zipping had stopped zipping and wasn't moving. I grabbed the two chicks out and the partially zipped egg. The two chicks went into the intermediate brooder, and the DAP went to autopsy. While it's right nostril was in the open and clear, there was dried goo in the left nostril. Removing the shell revealed a fully developed chick. A couple of things I noticed were it's head above the right wing, and a small amount of gelatinous fluid in the stomach area. I suppose while moving to zip, it may have forced some of the fluid into it's left nostril and drowned? Judging by the goo that oozed out of the zip area, I think it's highly possible. What do you think?
