Need help

[bocogirl]

This egg pipped last night (day 19) and this is as far as he's made it. I can't tell if the membrane is drying out or if its just taking a long time for this one. I don't know if I should wet the membrane any or leave it alone tonight too. Please any advise would be great.

seems a little far down in the shell to me. lets see if we can get someone that knows more about it then i do.

theres an air hole I just can't tell if its too big to rotate or if the membrane is drying out too much for it to zip. It's had it's beak towards the same hole the whole time

i see no blood veins at all, i would assist.

only with the shell and the outside membrane, and yes mist it with some warm water.

So I just need to help break a crack around the shell and dampen the membrane?
