Hi. Birds had eggs about 20 days ago. Saw pipping on this egg 48 hours ago. Saw no progress, saw yellowish stains near pipping which according to the internet meant that the bird was choking. Thought I might have to intervene as the air in the egg had a high volume, and my room is very dry.
Opening into the air area, the membrane was dry and stuck to the chick like shrink wrap. Very thin faint blood vessels. Chick moving and chirping inside. Decided to peel the membrane and there was no bleeding at all. Only upon peeling the edges of the egg there was bleeding. (shown in picture). Im not sure what I can do to help the chick. Any advice? Right now It is on a heat pad wrapped in warm cloth, about 30 celcius, chick exposed. Its little beak is moving.
What can I do?
