This is my first time hatching chicks. We had one hatch 2 days again and everything seemed fine only to find it dead a few hours later.
This chick had nearly hatched and then progress stopped last night. It had been going for 48 hours. We thought it had died. When I went to remove unhatched eggs it started chirping. I helped it hatch (I know I should not have done this but if figured either way it was going to die). Its legs stretch out and shake and it hasn’t lifted its head.
Is this a neurological issue or bacteria infection? The egg it came from had an unpleasant odor.
