I’ve got a weird situation here. I set eggs under a broody hen on July 26 2022 and today is three weeks when they all should’ve hatched. Instead one hatched at two weeks and the others hatched a few days after. I went in the coop today and saw that a check and pipped the egg. Since she’s been taking care of the four chicks she hasn’t been sitting on the eggs a lot and I can hear the chick calling from the egg. She has been sitting on the eggs a little bit but seems to be ignoring the chick in the egg. Should I assist hatch or should I let nature run its course. She has four chicks that have hatched
