Hatching assistance

[Mammasloth]

These two pipped and I made the hole for their beaks a little bit bigger they pipped at 11 ish but not much more than this. It’s been a while since I hatched and last one was shrink wrapped and I had to assist. Should I wait until later this evening to help

How's it going?

I've always found this article helpful in deciding if I need to intervene with hatching.

I got one out and the umbilical cord is still slightly attached the other that pipped is still in the membrane. If I peel it back even slightly it bleeds profusely so I am afraid to go any further to help it but it can wiggle much. The others haven’t pipped yet

Hopefully things have turned out o.k. by now.

I did note yesterday what you'd posted, but forgot to ask. Just because they pip, doesn't mean you have to make the hole bigger.
Unless there's a very clear need to intervene/assist, then it's best to just let them pip and zip on their own.

I highly recommend that you read this article, it will help you determine if making a hole is necessary.
