lost another, it pipped and then just quit breathing.

still nothing more than a pip, I think I see its beak where the pip is.

There is another pip, but it hasnt got much farther than that, and it started pipping about 5 am.

The chick is fine, I made a mistake. I am just gonna have to stay away from the bator, until they are fuzzy and ready to come out

Dang, hatching eggs takes lots of patience I just want them to hurry up and hatch

thanks for the great info! It is now day 22, i had 8 eggs that was due to hatch yesterday on day 21. 3 hatched, with my help, they pipped. Problem is the others are still alive but no pip yet. I took one out and candled it and the chick is moving its feet or something, but its not really...

Yeah my mistake! I had to help them both out. They started pipping real well but they made no progress what so ever. I prolly shouldnt have done anything but they are ok, so far. I have some expensive cuckoo marans that are due to hatch tommorrow. I am nervous about that. I hope I didnt ruin...

well the tissue from that is attached to its stomache come undown or this is abnormal? I am assuming it is where the embilical cord is, how ever you spell that.

Well one has hatched! Now another is pipping. I believe these are 2 of my Barnevelders, or welsummers I am not sure. They are from some eggs I got off ebay. The chicks stomache is still attached to some tissue in the egg, is this normal?

once a chick starts pipping on day 21, how long should it take it to get out?

yay one is pipping and peeping like crazy!!!!!!

Im on day 20 and day 18 with some cuckoo maran eggs in the incubator. I am hoping they hatch. I started out with about 25 eggs, now I only have about 8 that actually was developing. Not starting out to a good hatch. But if only a few hatch I will still be happy. When I candle I see some feet...
