PIP on pointy end of egg????

[EastinChickens]

Well, I guess the subject explains it all, but...

It is day 21 of incubation for us and a few of our ameracana eggs are pipping, but on the wrong side. Is there anything I should do or should I just leave them alone?

(THANK-YOU FOR ALL IMPUT!)

I had one doing the same thing yesterday. It pipped a small hole on the small end, then did no more far 12 hours. I helped it out. I just had to. But i should have waited a little longer. So give it at least 24 hours in my opinion before you help it, maybe longer.

I had a couple pip on the small end in recent hatches and just kept an eye on them through the incubator window. They both got out on their own just fine.
