At day 22, some chicken eggs may not have pipped yet, and that is not uncommon. The hatching process can vary, and not all eggs will hatch simultaneously. Some eggs might be a little delayed in their development, but that doesn't necessarily mean they won't hatch successfully.

It's important to remember that not all eggs will successfully hatch. Some eggs might not be fertilized, while others might experience early-stage mortality. During the incubation process, you may notice some eggs not showing signs of development or even discoloration. It's best to give them...

The dark gray color and the presence of a large air sac might indicate that the embryo stopped developing at an early stage. This could be due to various reasons, such as genetic abnormalities, improper storage, or incubation conditions.

Using live traps to catch and relocate raccoons and possums is a good temporary solution to mitigate the immediate threat to your birds. Make sure to relocate them to a suitable location far enough away from your property to reduce the chances of them finding their way back.
