    Hello Ya'll, I am a classroom teacher and I have a flock of 21 hens. I am hatching eggs in an incubator for my class as we have been studying chickens :) The kids have been so excited as we counted down the 21 days and yesterday there was no action. It is day 22 and nothing. I candled and...

    I have this very precious call duck egg that is on day 22 of incubation, and it has caused me so much stress already 😩.

    First time hatching - one egg left not pipped

    We put 9 eggs in the incubator, so far everything has gone swimmingly. 2 eggs pipped on day 20, and yesterday on day 21 all have hatched but one. The only egg left does not have an external pip, but I haven't opened the incubator to candle it. Last night before I went to bed there was one...

    Day 22 and nothing

    Day 22, eggs are extremely covered with poop and very dirty as mom has been laying on them. Should I be concerned? I tried candling, but I cannot tell much as I am new at this. Also, I don’t see any movement when I set them on a flat surface and I don’t hear anything.

    Five late bloomers? What is their chances?

    Had 13 eggs originally. I had a Kebonnix which only holds 12 eggs, so I split them between my Kebonnix and my mom's off brand (the incubator literally came with no instructions and the box was in Chinese) incubators. She took 4 and I took 9. On day 18, I had 8 viable babies with good looking air...

    Crack and I cant see the pip.

    My first time incubating. We are on day 22. Eight of 12 eggs candled and looked good at lockdown (day 18). One egg has cracked but the widest part of the crack is where I cant see it, underneath. Maybe there is a pip? The membrane is still intact. Noticed this 3 hours ago. Other eggs are...

    Day 22 egg linear crack not pipping

    Day 22 and woke up to egg with linear crack along the side. No foul smells. Is it going to explode? I tried candling it and could see because it’s such a dark shell. What is happening? 3 chicks have hatched. I put it in an unsealed bag just in case.

    No pipping day 22 natural hatch

    Hi all, I’m new to chicken keeping and have a silkie hen go broody recently, so I bought 6 eggs (postal) and let her sit. Today is day 22 and no pipping, should I candle? I candled on day 18 and 4 seemed to be developing, the other 2 eggs were removed. Could these four still hatch?

    Will eggs still hatch? Broody Hen Day 22

    So my broody hen was sitting on 6 eggs out of the 6, 4 hatched. This was sometime in the middle of last night. Is there a possibility for the other 2 to still hatch? Today is Day 22. Will she abandon the nest to go feed the other chicks?

    Air sack

    Am I supposed to mark the air sack? Chick has broke sell but not membrane on the side. I didn't know if it was supposed to start at the air thing or not. It is day 22 for this egg and I'm worried. No movement from what I can see.

    Day 22 egg hatching 2 eggs

    Today is day 22 for two eggs, and one egg has pipped but hasn't got through completely, like it hasn't pierced the shell completely. It's just cracked the shell a bit. The other hasn't done anything. Also I have 3 more eggs that are on 21 days, they haven't done anything either. My temp stays at...

    Enlarged air sac

    Okay, so I am on day 22 of a hatch that has had a lot of hiccups (including a couple accidental cool downs) so I was already expecting them to be delayed IF they hatched at all. Right now there are no pips but when I stick a flashlight in the incubator to check them they’re still moving and all...

    Hatch turning into glue mess :-(

    I need some guidance with what is going wrong with my hatch and when to intervene. I will start with that I've read the guides to assisted hatch and realize DO NOT RUSH THE HATCH is the take away message. (I've done minor assists in the past but they were one-off-ers when the rest of the hatch...

    Cracked Fertile Eggs

    Its day 22 and one of my 3 remaining eggs have hatched (yesterday). One of the eggs has a thin crack about an inch long. My silkies are still happy to sit on it, but I candled them today for fun and didn't see anything. Both are 1/3 dark and 2/3 light. I don't know if this matters but the one...

    Five chicks hatched... one lonely egg left

    Five chicks hatched on day 20, which was 48 hours ago now. I have one egg left. I candled it and can see movement, and I’m guessing there’s some of the chick in the air sac because it’s not a clean line anymore. I can’t make out what part it is tho- it’s not like a clear beak. No external pip...
