What to do with a cracked egg?

[chicken4prez]

I candled my eggs today and my one SSH eggs was fertilized and had veins BUT there's a small crack that I'm pretty sure the broody made.

Is there a way to fix it?

Some liquid skin bandage is the best repair I've found.
Others have used bees wax and nail polish. I have too but those never worked for me. The liquid skin was great. It also has antiseptic properties and will retain moisture.
IMO, the nail polish tales way too long to dry.

Would there be a problem if the nail polish got into the egg? And isn't liquid skin very chemicaly? We do have some apparently though so if it won't harm the chick I can use it.

Maybe that's why the nail polish never hatched a chick for me. If I didn't allow it to dry a LOOONG time, it stuck to the egg turner and the egg would break when I tried to remove it.
As I said, the liquid skin has antiseptic properties so would probably kill any bacteria around the crack. I've successfully hatched 3 chicks using it. The most amazing case was when I dropped an egg that was only on day 10 and had cracks over about half the egg. I covered all the cracks and reapplied it for the next couple days. I thought it would prevent the chick from escaping. I went to bed one night and the next morning the chick was out and fine.

Do I have to worry if the liquid skin got inside the egg?
