Got a pip! One of my Pekin eggs pipped on the wrong end into a vein

Day early for lock down so

make it little one.

I started a thread about it looking for advice.

20 EEs/mutts, 8 BCMs, and 8 Blue Ameraucanas - locked down with humidity JACKED up. NO idea if any of the eggs are any good. Candled a couple 5 days in and saw some signs of life. Haven't touched them since except today to get them in their trays. Anxiously anticipating active fuzzy butts ...

It needs a while to a) stop bleeding, b) gather strangth for absorbing yolk and c) attempting to zip. Some can zip around the wrong end, but not many do. I'd say leave it 24 hours, or if it seems to get very weak, make the hole slightly bigger. Remember: it has had a crap start already so don't make it any worse!!!

Come on... 1 more Icelandic and I'll have a 100% correct prediction!!

And I didn't realize he was getting eggs that had been jump-started!! Sheesh! If we knew they'd been under a girl, we'd all have voted for Icelandics!
