I don't want to assume they are duds quite yet but I've had one chick hatch out late on the 18th day and it's a part of 7 more eggs that haven't hatched yet. It's now day 20 and nothing....when do I decide enough is enough and start over? Tomorrow should be the hatch date but I'm assuming since one came out ( my temp got too high a couple times ) that the rest should be early as well. Is it common for them to hatch days apart?
