    When to help...

    So I am going on 24+ hours since pips, I have 10 out of 21 hatched. I can see 2 chicks that have been pipped for over 24 hours and have small holes (about the size of a pea). I can tell one is drying out. Humidity is about 82%. When do I try and help?? Thanks!!

    I second the tubing with the syringe. I even used a regular straw the last time (used what I had). Good luck.

    Sponges in LG bators to up the humidity? Bad or Good Idea?

    I used them....bought a new package ($1 at the dollar store) and put them in on lock-down. I made sure to put them under the larger holes so I could use a straw to add water to up the humidity. Then after hatch, I tossed them. 9 eggs went into lock-down and 9 eggs hatched. It worked for me...
