Time for more chicks! Hatch-a-Long!

[TwoCrows]

Still no pip and she was def alive yesterday. What do I do?

When exactly did she internally pip? 7:30pm last night?

If so, she isn't ready to externally pip yet.

No clue. I know she was internally pipped by then. And she was def alive bc the whole egg shook when I lifted it and candled. Gently sat her back in there. Though the 2 babies keep rolling her around on accident.

I figure if she isn't pipped by nightfall then help? Or poke a hole for air? I wanna go help but I also don't want to help if she shouldn't make it bc of something wrong. Ugh. I hate this part of wondering lol. Yeesh. Hatch already Hestia! Stop making me worry

Candle her and make sure there isn't any fluid in the air cell, if there is, she may have drown. Is she still moving? If so, you might poke an air hole now.

This is the difficult stuff with hatching. Happens to us all, it's tough for sure. ❤

Alright. Safety hole punctured. I did a teeny dot with a screw. She was def still wiggling! Gonna leave her alone now until hatch bc I don't wanna shrink wrap her.

Hestia was pipped at 3pm but my son told me he opened it to pet the chicks. I'm hoping she isn't shrink wrapped

This was at almost 3pm
