If he doesnt make any progress in 6-12 hours i would help him hatch out. My last hatch i had to help out 3 chicks because 2 where to big for there shelland the other wasnt making any progress. all are healthy and happy
Well i am up to 12 baby chicks so far... 2 died while zipping though and 3 havent done anything yet. I also have 3 eggs due to hatch the 14 in that incubator and i thought for sure they wouldnt still be alive but i candled them today and they are doing really well! And the chick that hatched to...

I am hoping too but i cant see him breathing either. when i get the chicks that have already hatched out i will take that egg out (if not already hatched) and carefully open it and see if the chick is still aive, if so i will go ahead and help him out.
Another chick from a friends egg just hatched and i got that one on video too! its much longer and i will post it later because it will probably take a while to get on my computerand load. He is a redish/yellow color

I dont think that one is going to make it.. its been 6 hours sence he has made any more progress and he isnt moving or anything But all of the sudden all the eggs are moving that started to pip and 2 more eggs just pipped!!!
Dont feel bad.. i ALMOST gave up on my chickies and it is only day 19.. but sadly the first chick who zipped i think might have died in the shell but thankfully more chicks are pipping and i really want more chicks. i also hope that my 2 6 day old chicks downstairs will get along with my newest...
Because he hatched that made some of the other chicks want to get out and more are zipping and almost out! i am actually surprised because it is only day 19. here is the vid:
Great news! my first chick of the year hatched! it wasnt the egg that was zipping though it was an EE egg which i was actually hoping this one would hatch. But i also wanted the bantam egg (the first one to zip) to hatch but sadly i think he died i will post a video of this cute little chickie...
at least 4 chicks are pipping and 1 is zipping! its only day 19... but i am kinda conserned about the 1 chick who is zipping because he hasnt moved for a while..
Great news, its day 18 here and already 5 of my ewggs are rolling around and chirping!!!! My porcelain d'uccle, EE, and 3 other large brown eggs are moving around. Wish me luck as when it comes down to hatching i dont always have the best of luck..
You guys are already on lockdown?! Mine are due the 9th and lockdown isnt until tomorrow.. (the 6) But most of my eggs look like they are ready to hatch but some look like they are on day 15/16 but they are all still moving and appear healthy
had to throw out 4 but none of those eggs where mine. 2 of them cuckoo maran eggs, 1 a LS, and the other a mistery egg from a friend. so i am now down to 20. (wich is good because my mom got mad because i put so many in there.. )
