So to make a long story slightly shorter I work at a preschool and I’m certain that we have been incubating these eggs all wrong probably due to the fact that we had the incubator out for the kids and they’ve knocked the lid off several times and played with the heat settings. It’s day 24 and only one egg has pipped. It’s beak emerged fully yesterday and it started chirping this morning. The hole it has made is pretty big now but I think it is stuck (from what I’ve read probably due to low humidity).
I’m feeling pretty guilty because the incubation could have definitely been handled better so my instinct is to help but I’ve resisted intervening after reading through most of this website!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
