Anyone else hatching Feb. 1st?

I can't check for pips either cause they are under my hen. I checked around 2-3 today and there was no pips and today is day 20.

But my last hen who hatched chicks in November her eggs didnt hatch till day 26 so If not tomorrow I am not giving up on the little feller.
 
I have been so surprised that nobody seemed to be hatching when mine are due..... Feb 2.
I cant believe this is the first time i saw this thread

Today is day 20 for me too! We will have to keep tabs on each other. I was afraid to mess with the eggs much since this would have been the "no turning" stage when I incubated, so I was trying not to disturb them much. I tried to listen to one and thought I heard faint pecks, but I couldn't be sure because all the other hens were starting to go up and roost over my head and they were just to noisy! I didn't turn it over or inspect well for pips, but I looked by putting my head under it and I just didn't see any on that one.

Another benefit of incubating inside... quiet so you can hear every sound and plenty of light so you can see the first pip! LOL! I got so excited when I saw my first pip and now I can't watch. I'm almost a little sad! LOL! Ok... I am a little sad! But I'm excited too!

Roopty, keep talkin...it works!

Theresa, don't give up. I also had a Silkie hatch some babies recently at day 26.

Lurky, so glad you found us. The more, the merrier..We can keep each other sane when the eggs are driving us nuts!! And, you are so right, we definitely need more pics. I'll go take some............

I haven't walked back there in a couple of hours to check on things, so I guess I'll go check now. Maybe I'll have more Orps pipped..........
