When Should You HELP a HATCH? Day33?

[Balbinka]

Follow your gut instinct!

If you start helping, take it slow. If you see blood, set the egg down and return to it later.
Patience and caution must be exercised.

Good luck with your ducklings!

Is the inner membrane all dry. if it is wet it. if you see blood veins leave it alone wrapped in the darn cloth. If no blood vesils you can peel the wet membrane back a bit and let it push itself out

Is it the rubbery membrane oyu are on about. You will be able to pull a bit of it back so they duckling can breath, your not in the clear yet. Peel a bit back and look for the inner membrane

Ok Ill Look 4 Inner Membrane Head Is Showing And Beak Is Starting To Poke Out But His Beak Is Still A Bit Covered By The Membrane

If it hasnt made a hole, make him a little hole and it will make it easier for him. or better still peel the white membrane off the top and look down the sides to see how far you can go, once you hit the inner membrane stop. If there are no blood vessils in the inner membrane peel that back to and he will come right up. Leave his butt in the shell and let him wriggle out of it. Dont be scared to hep him Julie. You can help do it, we all all hear waiting with you.
