successful wrong end pipper

My chick made it out finally around 6:30 this evening. It's really tired and weak but I hope it perks up with some time. It seems to spend alot of time on it's back and I don't know if it can get upright. I hope I won't have to cull it.

Hope it's okay. Mine was exhausted too but she's perfect now. I left her in the incubator for almost 24 hours. She slept the entire time.

I certainly don't have the answer , but I think of it the same as a breach live birth ; lowers the chance of the chick surviving but does not rule it out , and at least with an egg the mother's life isn't endangered also .
