The 5th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

[sillycmoy]

Is it's head/neck tilted way up and back?

I will go take a photo, I feel so bad for the poor thing, maybe I left it for too long, but I figured it would get out on its own since it head was out, figured it would just break free. Poor baby. Let me go get a photo

I have a pip that's been pipped since last night. Almost 24hrs. It did nothing until today. And today only one tiny bit more. It's looking dry. I'm not sure if I should do something or not. It's moving every now and then.

Then this one I think is shrink wrapped. Is there a video I can refer to on what to do??

I can see it's membrane snug up against it when I shine a light in the hole. Ahhhhhh :-(

Here is the baby, please please tell me I can fix this. Its an Olive Egger if that helps. Its just kicking its legs like anything to get up too. If you roll it over, it sits for a min and then flips back over. Sorry for the messy incubator, but there was 29 chicks that hatched in the last 24 hours. HeHe

That first one looks like it may be malpositioned. The zipping is not in the normal place. Hope someone can help you with it..

35/55 out 1 more pipped but haven't seen any activity lately.

35/45 hatched and still hearing chirps from the remaining 10 eggs, none of which are pipped. I'm hoping they can make their way out overnight. This is the draggiest hatch I've ever had. First hatched Wednesday night (Day 18) and just put the last one in the brooder this evening.

I'm actually less worried about that one than I am the one with the beak out. That one I can clearly see the inner membrane is snug all around it's head... I don't know what to do. It's breathing but I feel it's stuck. But I have read over and over and over to not intervene too soon?!??
