Help! My first batch and this little chick pipped 24 hours ago, on day 23 we think, but we did have a problem with the incubator in the first 2 days so it might be day 21 officially....
It pipped in the middle, then zipped, a little bit further round. It's now been sat with this hole which was made by 3am, slightly enlarged by 8am and now has stayed the same size.
We can hear cheeping, it responds to us cheeping or singing, but I'm worried as nothing has changed. I don't want to assist prematurely, and don't really know too much about what to do except follow instructions... but it's now about 27 hours since the first pip.
Does any wise person have some advice for us?
Thank you
