Are my eggs going to hatch?!?!

[chickhatch]

it Is my first time incubating eggs. I have made it to lockdown 10 out of 12 eggs successfully developing and no troubles. I had one mess up on day 18 (I put my silkie eggs into lockdown on day 17), I accidentally pumped the incubator and sent the eggs rolling. I quickly placed them all back and left the incubator because there was nothing I could after that. I have been think about for a few days now (currently day 20) and I am scared I have messed up my eggs. I have seen no movement (from out side the incubator) and I can’t hear and peeping. Can I candle my eggs or is that running the risk of shrink wrapping ? Should I just wait and see what happens? I have had my incubator for ages now and when I was younger I used to to hatch eggs but it has been so long. I have read up on every article and I can’t seem to find any answers, I have kept my humid throughout incubation around 55% and have raised it to 65% during lockdown. Have I messed up?
thank you

It will be ok! Broody hens move their eggs all the time! Wait until day 21 and then you can candle to see what's going on.

They can hatch early, esp in hot weather.

Have you got any pips yet? If you listen carefully you might hear chirping

Not yet, I have 4 wk old chicks I. The room as well so chirping is hard to listen for but from what I can hear I can’t hear and chirping.

I had the same issue with my last hatch, they were all in one room so couldn’t hear a thing. Good luck

i can't help but sit in front of the incubator and watch them as if something is going to just happen
