September Hatch-a-long!

[BlueBaby]

CL hatched, but theres a lot of yellow clear goo attached to her bottom, is that normal? Should I do anything?

I would quickly but carefully remove those pieces of shell off of it before they have a chance to dry and stick to the chick, but leave the rest of it alone for now. The goo that's there is most likely a part of the egg white that is still being absorbed.

Thank you! The two hatched are doing awesome...
The other three that pipped between four to eleven hours ago, theres been no change. I'm considering checking them for movement,
How many hours in should I check, and maybe open the hole a little for them?

I'm hearing more cheeps from the unhatched, and theres another pip...
When I checked my serama pippers at 13-17 hours after, half of them were already dead I know that can be a serama thing, but I'm so worried about these pips that haven't moved since 11pm...

I am on my tablet and can't figure out how copy the link, but in the learning center there is an article that covers when and how to help:

I waited 12 hours, then opened the hole a bit to make sure the inner membrane was also open so air could get in. After 12 more hours I helped the chick out.

No pips this morning. I'm not concerned just yet, knowing they're going to take their sweet, sweet time. The investigation discovery channel is keeping me away from the 'bater this time. Congrats to everyone with newly hatched chick's!
