And here I am still waiting for my first pip, lol! What day are y'all on? I just hit 20.

Day 20 here too, I had my temp down just a bit lower this time (just .5°) and am now regretting it lol

I prefer to time it for overnight hatching or I will schedule a homeschool trip out of town for that day. Haha! Today we are home and I keep going to check. Must.practice.self.control.

See, if mine are hatching through the night I'm waking up all night long checking on them.

This little one pipped yesterday and seems to be struggling. Humidity has been around 75. At what point should I attempt to assist with hatching? I hate to help too soon but hate to let it die if I could help.

When you say that it's struggling, what are you seeing in person to feel it's struggling? Is it pecking repeatedly at the same spot and making a lot of noise but not rotating? Also how far along is the rest of the hatch? Mostly finished and down to a few stragglers or just getting started?
