Anyone setting eggs starting July 15 -July 22?

I am finally in lock down. Candled for the last time and discarded five, still have 19 left. Couldn't see much movement in any of the remaining ones, but they all were dark so I am hoping they are all good. There is one in the 19 that I almost discarded, as it wasn't completely dark like the others, but I saw movement so I kept it. It looks to be two to three days behind in development compared to the others.
It is so exciting to read about your hatched chicks. I hope to have a few by Friday or Saturday.
YEAH!!! Wishing you the best.

Whoot!
 
So I'm on day 20 and my first hatch ever to go the full distance ( I have hatched on day 20 everytime so far ) are holding strong as Ft. Knox! Not even a sign of a pip...yet. Our house gets hot during the day so I had to adjust my temps back. Out of the 7 hatches I have already done this is the first where my temps ran at target or slightly lower. I set them at 10 pm on the 18th, so my true due time is still 24 hours away. I fully expect most to hatch. I have put these eggs in cartons because the last several hatches I had that were crowded, the chicks that were hatched caused problems with my pips. It does take them longer to "depart" from the egg, but once out they can't roll the pips this way.
I am so excited for all the babies, and I can't believe what a great hatchalong thread this is.
Roxanne... I can see so many chances for splinter threads here!
