The last hatch I had a chipped egg and used beeswax to seal it. The chick developed to term but never hatched. I had read that you could use nail polish and I thought the same thing about the fumes and chemicals but apparently people have had them hatch fine with it so I used it this time on my one silkie egg with the crack. I was going to use wax but the crack was so large that I thought the nail polish would go on in a finer line than the wax.

So you do know of full term and healthy chicks hatching with the finger nail polish? I was wondering if everything was fine with the babies after hatching and gotten older. I haven't really been able to find much on that. You know that would be a good invention for someone to develop. A non toxic wax crayon type thing, where the wax was really soft and in a crayon shape to be able to control the sealing.
 
Okay I couldnt take it had to bring them inside alittle nippy outside so took a quick pic
