yesterday I noticed the last of our 4 cockatiel eggs had the first pip spot.. it has been about 24hrs... and the chick has been cutting in the wrong direction (the pip line is going in the direction of end to end instead of around the middle at the air sac line... (vertical instead of horizontal)... I have never assisted with a hatching before (watched videos and read up just now..) but figured should ask here first
NOTE: i have candled and the chick is very active... and i can feel the kicks thru the shell
I have been watching closely for the last hour... NO progress on the pipping... but he/she has begun peeping constantly
at what point should I assist and in what way? anyone with experience in this particular issue???
been another hour... no progress on the pipping... but he/she is VERY noisy inside... (lots of peeping... not alot of pipping lol) Im really worried that he is not going to be able to do this on his own.. and need advice on the best/safest way to proceed
