1st hatch

[Daddoo]

2 chicks are hatching as I speak. 4 other eggs have small cracks in shell, don't appear to be completely through membrane. Is this normal will they eventually break a hole through shell? Today is day 21. Alot of pressure on old dad here to deliver

Give them time. (Keep repeating this to myself as I'm waiting on my own first hatch currently happening) Got my first 2 chicks late yesterday afternoon, 6 since then, another 6 in the process of hatching, and 5 that haven't external pipped yet. The waiting room is definitely experiencing a mild case of anxiety.
