Depends on how much yolk it has to absorb... just wait for it to struggle to get out, that's the sign it is ready...

ETA: watch your humidity... Calls tend to get edema (water retention under the skin) at higher humidity...

So just let it lay in the incubator? Edit? Sorry I'm still only half functioning.. Trying to do all this between the sick bed. Hope your feeling better..

I edited the post you quoted... said watch your humidity cuz Calls can get edema...

Yes, lay a hand towel in the bator and if it gets out, it should be fine... you just don't want it snagging the yolk sac on the wire mesh and tearing it open...

Hope you feel better... I am worse today... lungs thickened up and now coughing bad...

Well after taking it out of the shell i've realized the yolk is absorbed kind of. Its not out but the umbilical is swollen and I can see almost like the yolk underneath. The cord was still attached and started really bleeding. I stopped the bleeding with the cornstarch butbleft the shell attached. In was worried it would bleed again if I removed it.

Actually, i hate shopping, but i love food shopping - especially when I'm back in the west - its alot cheaper, compared to this neck of the woods and so much better. Roll on July

When in July? Late enough to meet me somewhere, or even make a meet (you'd love h2g2ers)? https://h2g2.com/entry/A87879046 for my itinerary. Less than 2 and a half months!

I'd quoted and posted earlier, right after you headed off for the night, Chris...

Heck, one of my best friends from h2g2 is part of the Urban Dictionary
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=2legs

For that matter, h2g2 itself has an (outrageously outdated) entry in TV Tropes! http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Website/H2G2

Just leave it, let it rest... make sure something soft is under it and drop the humidity, take out any water cups, sponges, etc...
