Okay so I was going to throw out the three eggs that made it into lockdown today after i put them in a ziplock and was going to go bury them one started peeping i realized that there was a small pip in the eggshell. anyways i was sure they were dead (put in on the 6th) and today is the 28th well we figured out it was shrink wrapped (our power went out with numerous tornado storms) and now that I've helped it hatch by moistening the membrane and soaking the chick it pushed itself outta the rest of the egg and i'm scared of its neck. Am i just overreacting or is this a showgirl silkie by mistake instead of the bearded I was to receive? It's trying to stand up and moving around and chirping i'm just scared something is wrong with its neck... This is the only chick that made it out of 7... So I desperately want it to be okay.. even if it turns out "special" These were intended for pet purposes anyways so I don't care about "disposing of weak or late hatching chicks" Sorry for the bluntness but I'm a lover not a killer.... Unless my chick is severely deformed and it's for humane reasons
I had just wiped off the thermometer and put it back inside it's the correct temp inside the bator...
