My little guy made no progress by this morning. Internally pipped well over 24 hours. So I made a small hole. Now I'll just wait the rest of the day and hope he tries to get out!

Looking forward to an update!

4 out and at least 3 pipped. Hoping for more in the AM.

Can you still hear it chirping?

Wow, second egg from our Golden Cuckoo Marans and it's much darker.



Three chicks hatched and four more pipped.

Nice on both counts.

Personally, I'd give him about 4 hours, then see what's up, perhaps enlarge, and help some more if the membrane is clear of vessels.

Yes, he's chirping and moving.

Yes, thank you. That's pretty much the game plan. I don't think he was ever positioned correctly by the way he looked pre-internal pip. I think he's going to need a full assist.

Night, Megan!

Good lucks x2!  Can't wait for pics.

Asap! Thanks!

That one is live, i made windows like that on each, even found a fourth bad pip, one of them did pass, was DIS, eggtopsy says deformed as well as malpostion
Everything else is live this AM 10hours from the assist id call it a so far success...

Aww, sorry to hear about the one. I've found out that I am no good for eggtopsies. I make it about half way and then chicken out. I did find out that one of our quitters last time quit well before lockdown. The one I posted a pic of was fully formed and not deformed and a girl, it just quit after internally pipping, not sure why. The third one was I guess around day 16-17? It was pretty well formed but the yolk was still huge.

Reading all that, I guess I did eggtopsy them. Felt like I yellahed.
