It’s not easy getting a photo, but would guys assist with this (brown) egg? It should be able to breathe bc I’ve seen it’s beak. It might be 12 or 24 hours, my new hatched chicks have been playing soccer with the unhitched eggs.

It’s Day 21 and I have one unzipping (and perhaps unknown pips.)

additionally, one chick is reaching 48 hours in the incubator, and I’m worried it’s time to remove it.

since I’m posting, my unzipping chick’s membrane looks yellow (green egg) and is in the wrong spot. I’ll post that, too.

Advice? Thoughts? Help a new mom stay strong?

I'm responding to bring my post to the top. Would really appreciate some advice. Or even thoughts.

The green egg chick looks like a sticky chick, & can't move beyond the pip. I'd assist since it's ready to hatch.
