I really need some advise.
I have one egg under a heat lamp, because the mother refused to stay on the eggs.
3 chick already died, 2 while hatching and 1 picked to dead by other chickens.
The other 3 eggs had dead chickens inside, in different stages of development.
I did the water test this morning, and this egg still wobbles multiple times.
But the egg feels a bit cool when it's not under the lamp for a few seconds( during candling).
I can't see much when i candle it, only the air sack and a dark area( the shell is dark).
Could the chicken still be alive? Or is it a hopeless case?
I'm afraid to give up, and open to egg, and find a not completely developed but still alive chick.
What to do? I really could use some advise!
I keep the temperature at 37 celcius and try to keeo the air humidified!
