Not much happening. Still don't know which of the other eggs has internally pipped. They are going to make me wait, lol. A bit more progress on the first egg, but she's resting now.

Will do. And I was wrong. A second egg, the BCM, has pipped! But on the opposite end of the air cell, so I almost missed it. I repositioned it on its side. Do I need to do anything else?

Chicks that pip on the wrong end usually take considerably longer to hatch than the ones that pip correctly. Be prepared for that. The reason is that they have not gone through the internal pipping process so all of the things that the chick goes through with an internal pip has to be done with an external pip instead, making things go slower.

Slow going, here.
