Ok, I had this happen before but I ended up losing the chick (my fault). I was opening the remaining eggs from my bator to toss and a couple of the eggs had chicks that were too big(took up the whole air cell) to move to get out(died in shell). I opened the last one and the chick was still breathing, yolk absorbed etc so I just removed enough on top for it to get it's head out and put it back in the bator. A couple hours later it managed to get itself out of the egg. Apparently it's position in the egg messed up it's legs? The legs go straight forward, it can't get them under it no matter how hard it tries. I will try to get a pic but until I did I wanted to see if anyone had this happen and knew how to treat? thanks
