I can see one egg through a baby monitor app and I notice that the temperature is dropping as one egg is hatching. Will everything be alright until I get home tonight? And I'm pretty sure it just externally pipped because it looks malpositioned. Can it get out on its own? Please give advice.
Actually I won't be home for the process, but I hope everything goes well while I'm away. It pipped early because day 21 is Sunday and there is one other egg in there that hadn't pipped when I checked.
Don't worry too much. I'm concerned too because I'm going to be gone most of this weekend and my chickens are supposed to hatch this Sunday. I made my own incubator to where I will set them to where the temp will be 99.5 but when they hatch they can move around to colder and warmer areas. Good...
Make sure all the water wells are filled and if needed you can add a small glass bowl with water and maybe even a sponge with it. Lower humidity will just cause the egg to lose more moisture and allowing the air cell to grow larger in size. Mainly temperature affects when the eggs will hatch...
