Those are ready to hatch.
I actually had the same thing. I set on 12/31 and my first chick hatched sometime overnight last night.I wasn't expecting any until at least tomorrow.

I hatched out a clutch of eggs back in December (my first). So I now have 13 10-week old chickens running around. It's still a bit too cold at night to move them outside in MN, so they are living in a growout brooder in the garage. They'll be moving outside by the end of the month.
