    I am in the same condition as before, One of them peeping all the time, I can hear him "tick tick" trying to pip the shell, all other 19 look really lifeless at the moment no movement, no peeping.

    Chick speaking inside egg, how long to hatch ?

    Getting worried now, I am going to wait another couple of hours and then as you suggested I am going to peep a small hole in the air pocket, do I also need to make the hole in the membrane under the thick outer shell ?

    Thanks sumi for informative response, I have my fingers crossed as to when it starts external pipping.
