Hello to everyone

I'm currently performing my secong attempt of hatching chicken eggs. First time i get 8 out of 12, but this time things seems to be different. Today is 24th day od incubation. I'm left with only one egg now. I've been candling it for the last 3 days to see what is happening. Chicks is moving inside withing heart beat rythm towards an air cell and looks completely developed. Humidity level is 82% and temp 38C. I'm getting really concern about that one if its ever going to hatch. I cannot hear any peeps. I'm using JN7-56 incubator. PLEASE HELP

sorry I don't have that information regarding hatching. Please read the BYC thread on hatching and incubation. You could try "cheeping" at the egg, sometimes that encourages them or tap a little on the egg to see if there is a response. If the temps dropped at some point - it could cause a later hatch. Hatching 8 out of 12 the first time - was a good level,

Did the chick pip internally, i.e. into the air cell? If it did, leave it like that for 24 hours at least, before assisting. There is a guide on how to assist and what to look for here:

Good luck with the hatch!
