My quail egg hasn't hatched yet it's 20 days today

❤️yes it hurts so much and it's so complicated because I want to help her but I know I could cause more harm than good . I have just checked the ventilation hole and the tissue was covering it so I'm glad I just ripped some of it because now there is more ventilation could this have been why my other one suffocated ? The pip hole is on the side so is that okay it's between upwards and down so I wouldn't like to turn it downwards ?

I don't think it would have killed the other chick
As long as the pip hole is not covered don't move the egg
 
This was my baby that's passed away😞isn't she beautiful I thought she was a big chick for a quail . I'm fingers crossed that this unhatched chick will be okay and survive .

She does look very big, that may have been her problem, she might not have had enough space to turn,
I have my fingers crossed for you

Yes I have not touched the egg pip hole is in a position where I can see it but it not upwards but more to the side if that makes sense 🙏❤️
That makes sense, if you think about it, it would be hard to pip upward when gravity is pulling down so the side makes more sense
 
Thankyou so much ❤️🙏could be a few hours then I've read it can take 24 hours or so ? I did think that yes she may have been to big for the egg xx
Each baby is an individual, I have had babys not pip at all and go straight to zipping and I have had babys internally pip 24 hours later externally pip 24 hours later zip, so it really depends on your baby
