Hi! So our chick are been worrying me and my mom to death because it hasn’t hatched yet, and it’s been over 24 hours:confused:
I’m scared it might be skin wrapped because it doesn’t look quite right to me, but it could just be me.
It started pipping yesterday morning and the humidity is above 80
I may have definitely mistaken that little bubble has it’s beak so i don’t think its zipped yet!

Welcome To BYC

How is it going? Did your chick hatch?

If you feel you need to assist, read the article below very carefully and give it a try.

Sadly, the poor baby didn’t make it. Something seemed to be wrong with them when we looked at them out of their egg. :( such a heartbreaking part of egg hatching, they’re now resting peacefully but it’s just so sad that little baby tried so hard.
We currently have 2 more on the way, hopefully these two go better than last time and don’t have any problems, thank you a ton

I'm sorry you lost this one, hopefully the other 2 hatch with no issues.
