Do you all think i should help that one?

I gave my little sticky guy a warm bath and got the membrane and the rest of the shell off of him. He is back in the incubator and he is trying to walk around. Hopefully he will pull through.

Do you all think i should help that one?

My last one "sloth", was only half way out for several hours.

I would shine the flashlight at her. She didn't like it. But I would get a reaction.

You could try just using a warm wet q-tip to just see if the membrane is stuck or not. But you risk the chance for any other, if they have pipped or haven't hatched yet.

Yours might not have absorbed the yolk yet. And if you go to far in helping it out could be worse. So it is a rough call.

Not everyone agrees with helping and I won't judge. But I personally can not stand back and do nothing.

Oh good, I will keep my fingers crossed.

My humidity has been between 58 and 60 room at 50% so i think it's ok they don't seem to have alot of liquid in there

Not sure on your incubator, but that seems a little low. I keep mine between 65-70. But not sure what everyone's else may run.

Ok humidity is up to 65 now and 47 in the room. I really don't want to open it if i don't have too since i still have some pips. I am eating my nails waiting on these guys geez this is nerve racking! I am still in the same boat as of now the 2 are zipped but won't hatch grrrrr and i have some pips that keep pushing out the membrane a bit so i know they are ok. That one has made the zip a bit wider but still seems in the same position so i don't know

on a good note the one that has hatched is doing wonderful up and moving around almost all dry now.

I am currently on day 21 so how long can this go on lol i have several that have not pipped yet as well 3 of which are my splash that i really want how frustrating
