    Day 22 now, still moving but not hatching....?? HELP!!

    I read on one of the posts on this forum that they had a hatch as late as 28 days. If you see no movement at all though, I am not sure. I only waited until day 25 until I took them out and opened them up to see what happened (after candling to make sure there was no movement inside) but I had...

    Day 22 now, still moving but not hatching....?? HELP!!

    Thanks for replies and for asking how they are doing. We have 1 little chick that made it from our hatch. 2 of the eggs look like they stopped developing half way through and 1 was fertilized but not developed at all. Sadly, the other 2 eggs had fully formed chicks inside but they never hatched...

    Day 22 now, still moving but not hatching....?? HELP!!

    Thanks for the replies! By "help", what do you mean? Were they starting to try to get out or was there nothing happening and you cracked the egg? Or put a hole in the air sac area? That's what I read in another post but we're afraid to try it. I guess we'll give them to day 24 as long as we...

    Day 22 now, still moving but not hatching....?? HELP!!

    Hi, i'm new to this forum. We have had chickens for about 3 years now but this is our first time incubating chicks. We have done everything according to the instructions, saw them moving when candled and haven't touched them since say 18. Day 21 the eggs were wobbling around but we haven't seen...
