That is really early for an egg to be hatching. The earliest I have had any of mine pip is 3 days. What kind of incubator do you have and what temp are you at?

Hi! It's not *bad*, but obviously the incubation process had started before you thought *you* started the eggs.

That's what I was thinking. Maybe it started incubating before you put it in the incubator. Maybe the hen sat on it some or it was so hot outside that it started developing.

Wow! Is the little one ok? Do you have others in with it?
