I'd check the "iffy" egg again. If it seems ok, leave them alone and see what hatches.

So far, 1 Buckeye chick hatched, 3 more pipped! There were 5 clears, 10 good, so 6 more to go.

3 from 12 isn't great but, it's my first time so I am thrilled with any. It is my fault that it isn't much of a hatch because I let the temp spike to 104 once and I am not sure how long it stayed there. Out house got warm on a Indian Summer day and it threw everything off.

When do I move the little ones to a brooder from the incubator? I don't see a pip anywhere else. The babies are so active that they are bumping into all of the other eggs pretty hard, is that ok?

I hope that's ok...my little baby is knocking the other eggs all over the place!! From what I've read (this is my first hatch where eggs have actually hatched) you should only open the incubator once every 24 hours during the hatch and you should remove the chicks when they are dry. Other input would be greatly appreciated!!

Congrats on the chicks!!

I love it. I'm suppose to be studying for a huge Exam I have tomorrow but, this is just fascinating I can't help but to watch.
