Mine I stop mine on 16 and they hatch from day 17 to 19

Sorry, I didn't realize Seramas were any different. I see BriarPatch actually has Seramas, I don't, so I'd go with the 16. Can you tell me though, why do they hatch earlier. Just curious.

Hello Roo,
Stop turning on day 16 they should hatch OK on day 18 or 19.

I have hatched out 2 batches under broodies going on my 3rd due on easter and they never hatch until day 21 so i am of no help in that department. I have always been told they hatch on day 18-19 but not the case with the ones i hatched

The smaller eggs hatch early and the larger don't .

The chicks develope as fast as a normal chicken but theres just not enough egg to fill I guess

Ok thanks for the replies this kind of clears things up.
So what happens if I stop turning on day 16 and they
don't hatch untill day 21 ?
Thanks again.
