Still only one baby. Poor guys not pleased. Hopefully that other egg hatches soon. I don't wanna take him out alone.

You're a bit far for that ha ha otherwise I would! "No honey, I don't know why that chickens so weird looking... Of course it's a chicken!"

Two external pip's, still one baby. I really shouldn't be impatient... Today is still only day 20.... But I'm impatient lol.

Okay so wrong side pipper hasn't made more progress. Should I help a little at this point? It's been at least 5 hours. Or should I give it a bit? I'm leaving in an hour and won't be back until around 7pm.

I would leave it. It doesn't look like a bad pip location. I bet it will start to unzip by the time you get home!

Thanks. It's a weird shaped egg. The air cell was actually on the other end, but this may have been one of the saddled eggs. Darn shipped eggs lol.

Worst case you can open the pip a bit wider when you get home and see what's going on in there. Is it a Marans? Marans are really slow. Slowest hatchers of all the breeds I've hatched actually, so I kind of think it's probably still working things out in there. Lol Fingers crossed it's out when you get home!

They're bielefelder's lol. They can't be slower than my ducks though haha. I had gotten excited with how fast the first one came out.
