Momma leaves the nest....

Well we are at day 23 and no other hatches. I gently candled the eggs and noticed one had pipped internally but can also see a pinkish fluid in the air sac. What does this mean? Something went wrong? Gonna give the others a couple more days but feel my luck has run out...on a positive note though, the other two chicks are fuzzy little balls of energy running about. So sweet :)

Did you see any movement in the eggs?

Post some pics of the fluffies when you can. :)
 
Nope, no movement or sounds :( The others I could still see veins, large air sac, lots of dark area but no movement in those either.

Was the air cell still round/oval or had it drawn down any?
Usually if they have quit, you’d see at least a small area of clear fluid up around the air cell. You might also want to sniff them to make sure they aren’t bad.
