I just wanted to thank you all for your help and support. She looked like a perfect little healthy chick I just don't know why she didn't hatch. We are thinking about making a new and improved incubator and giving it another go. This was not a planned incubation as I explained before our hen...
My heart is broken. :( She made another pip hole and I thought she was going to hatch out finally but I waited amd waited amd she just kept moving and chirping and I woke up this morning and there was nothing..
Yes, lots of movement and chirps. I'm very impatient but I know better than to try and help. I've already read up on that quite a bit. :) Thank you for the advice though! I can't wait to see this little chick. I'm so excited!:celebrate:love
The air cell is looking much better now and there may be a possible internal pip! I think she is definitely trying to pip into the air cell if she hasn't already. :hu:fl
I just used the float test to make sure baby was still alive. The air cell seems small to me. It's not drastically tilted to one side. There is a slight tilt but not much.
The egg is now mostly black. Not much to see. The video above was taken a few days before posting here. I can still see little flutters when candling. I tried the water test and the little chick inside was really moving. Lol Doing great so far! I hope the little chick continues to do well! :fl
