Wow!! Ok so I should take out the 3 little ones and put them in my brooder. Correct?

let them dry they are fine..and their movement and cheeping will get any eggs waiting more excited to hatch

Wait until they are fluffed up and dry. The can get too cold if they are wet when moved to the brooder. They can live off of the yolk they absorbed for up to three days. I do not leave them in the incubator more than 24 hours though.

Sorry for all the questions. But......... When/should I water test the Un pipped eggs?

I think the waiting is getting to my 8yr old. He keeps asking me to help. I keep telling him no. We still need to wait a while. Ihope I get some zipping this evening. They pipped this morning and have been kinda quiet until about 30 min ago then the cheeping really got loud. I'm trying to keep busy and only check once an hour but it's hard.
