I'm hatching eggs in my classroom, and came in work today to discover we have one fuzzy butt!
Most of the rest of eggs are pipped as well, and some look like they are starting to zip, but the zips are in wierd places. If someone could look at these pics and let me know if I should be concerned. Thanks.



This one is right at about 24 hours, maybe a little over. The pip was smaller yesterday, and I've come back to a bigger pip but no zip.




This is the one I am most worried about. It's like 2 pips with a crack line running around it, in the middle of the egg, instead of the round end.






This one is also right around the 24 hour pip time zone.



I do have another one that looks to be zipping fine on its own now, so they might be alright.

Thanks for your help!
 
with the ones that are piping on the side/wrong end; cut out the eggs holding part of an egg carton and place the eggs with the point of the egg facing down, leave them over night or for a couple of hours and see what has happened! this should help them position better and finish hatching, if they arent gonna come out (and are still alive) you may have to help them hatch!

hope this helps!
