Hey im just curious and im not sure if anyone will know the answer, but do you know how long it takes roughly from the chick to pip the air cell internally to the cick pipping the egg shell??
Im on day 20 just now and i had a VERY quick look (i know i'm bad sorry 
), i mean the egg was out of the bator less than a minute, and i noticed as if the black shadow of the chick was pushing/stretching into the air cell although it isn't totally in it.
