Ameriflower shipped egg pipped in air cell 23 hours ago (on day 20).
Chirping, chewing, moving, but no improvement in the zipping since about 10 hours ago.
Mal positioned, humidity at 62%.
Assist? Wait?

You will need to assist. Be very careful and watch for blood. The yolk leaked out and has glued the chick in. you will need warm water and q tips to un stick the goo.

The chick will likely be fine but watch for splay leg and pasty but. nutri drench type of vitamins will help the poor thing recover from the stress.

If possible, get the humidity up to 70%

Thanks, I wondered about that, it looks a bit odd.

It is common with shipped eggs. The shipping messes up the yolk

I will assist as soon as I get back home!

Also when the chick is out of the egg feed him a mix of water and food via syringe as no yolk=no food/nutrients=death so do feed him. Keep us updated!
