    This is my second attempt to hatch Cayuga eggs, all of my eggs last time had detached air cells and none of them made it so I'm trying again. Now I've got a single Cayuga egg on day 30 with *I think* internal pip. It was wobbling a ton last night and I think I may have heard it, but I don't see...
