Dry hatching questions

It may be the heart beat first.

The chick I thought would not make it as it has blood come from the pip has hatched in its own. Still have one egg that has a good side pip but still waiting to see if it goes any further. 9 chicks so far. One looks a little week though.
Oh I'm so glad that one blood pip chick made it. I hope the weak one comes around! 9 chicks is great news though. I think I found an early quitter. The rest all have nice blood vessels.

If you humidity is high the one concern would be if the air cell is getting big enough. Just keep and eye on that. You can find drawings of what that would look like when candling. As I understand too humid can make is so the air cell is not getting big enough. Someone here should correct me if I am not saying it correctly. LOL. I have two eggs we are waiting on now. The others do not seem to be doing anything. If we accomplish to get 8 to hatch we would have 60%. I was hoping for a minimum of 9. Time will tell.
Happy to hear your hatch is going well!
