5 days. I got 5 Californian Whites, 5 Ameracaunas, 5 Wyandotte, and 5 Barreed Rock, one of the Barred Rocks or Wyandottes died last night though, I don't know though since I can't tell the difference LoL
 
I missed a lot! I've also had quite the day my goose that's been laying on chicken eggs smooshed the only egg that has pipped so far and is now in critical care under my supervision.

For good outcome!!
 
Overnight the bator held a steady 70% humidity, it had dropped to 62 by 6 am. The temp has been holding steady between 98-101. I am using a shallow Corning ware small dish for holding water with a sponge in it. If I need more humidity, I add some more damp sponge to opposite side of bator. So things are ok. Thought I saw an egg moving earlier.
 
So the chick surprisingly made it threw the night! It's an absolute miracle from God! There is so many ways he could have died but nope! It's still moving and pipping I just hope infection doesn't kill it now because it's yolk wasn't completely absorbed :( I took some of the broken eggshell off and I'm keeping the humidity high since it doesn't have an eggshell.

The likeliness of it surviving is slim but it made it through the night so....

Wow amazing, I rooting for it!

No activity today, bator holding steady at around 71 p% humidity and 99-100 degrees have not seen any pip. Still think I saw two eggs moving some, tomorrow will be day 20. I am setting my alarm to walk up in the middle of the night. Last night, I woke up telling my BF "I don't want to get up". Tonight I changed the name of my alarm to "check incubator", lol.
