Still alive in there...

I put a themometor in there from my fish tank but I can only get it to 89 so far. We'll see! I turned the heating pad up to high.

Is it trying to get out or poke at the shell at all?? If you can't tell I am on pins and needles waiting to hear how this turns out!

Ok, I just read the post! Now I have to sit here and wait! I'm rocking on my toes waiting to see what happens!!!

My fingers are crossed for you & I am thinking happy chick thoughts for you! I wish I was your neighbor....I'd put it in my bator for you.

I turned up the heating pad and got the temp to 99 and was happy. We went and watched tv and the temp spiked to 103!!!

From the looks of it, the chick is not moving obviously like I could see earlier. I'm kind of sad thinking it hasn't made it. Nearly half the shell is removed and you can see some fresh blood spots where the shell may have cut into the membrane. Its still moist in there and the temp is the best I can get it at, 93.

My husband told me to leave her alone until morning. I've been a wreck all night worrying.

I guess we'll see what morning brings... I pray its a happy healthy chick after all this.

She didn't make it. I still see no signs of breathing or movement. It also got very dried out last night. I meant to get up this morning to rewet the paper towels early but over slept.

I feel like I killed it trying to get the temp up, and that spike was about the time she stopped breathing and moving.

Sorry!

We all know you tried your best.
