Hi
If he is in the small end this will take him more time to hatch
When they miss the air cell we add that 24 hours to the external pip
So now instead of 24 hours we need to wait 48 hours
Because he made his own break he has a great chance to hatch himself
If he does need help then at the 48 hours we can start to help if he hasn’t made any progress
He has a good size hole so he is getting great air
Now he just needs to absorb his yolk before he can hatch
Make sure humidity is at 65-70
