If it comes to it u can candle them and should be able to see whats going on inside like if its trying to pip, but only if it comes to itAs of this morning we have 10 hatched total (16 unhatched). We are just starting Day 19.... so hopefully we get a few more. (I'm hoping for at least 15 total). The 16 left have not pipped externally... I hope that's not a bad sign.
Colors so far
4- Tibetan
2- Tuxedo (I'm guessing Rosetta Tuxedo currently)
4 - Yellow (each one also as 1 or 2 dark spots on them). I am not positive but I'm guessing Panda. I've been told English Whites can have a few dark spots as chicks too). Trying to get some good pics of them.
Something I found interesting watching this hatch play out.... All 4 Yellow chicks hatched first, then the 2 Tuxs and then the 4 Tibetan. They weren't in random color order. Not sure if that was just coincidence or something to do with when they were laid etc...
The first 7 were moved to a brooder last night and seem to be doing good. The last 3 Tibetan chicks were hatched overnight and still in the incubator until tonight at least.
Is there anything I can do to help the last 16 along?
I was planning on candeling or doing a float test after day 21... does that sound right?If it comes to it u can candle them and should be able to see whats going on inside like if its trying to pip, but only if it comes to it
Never float testI was planning on candeling or doing a float test after day 21... does that sound right?
Is it normal for so many to not have even pipped while others have hatched this far in?
Very normal just ask @Nabiki or @Kiki Or read kiki's hatch along post all kinds of ppl talking about there currently hatching at this moment lol instead of making new hatch posts every time, lots of experience on here, but also just to ask too like u areI was planning on candeling or doing a float test after day 21... does that sound right?

No...you can't really help them along.As of this morning we have 10 hatched total (16 unhatched). We are just starting Day 19.... so hopefully we get a few more. (I'm hoping for at least 15 total). The 16 left have not pipped externally... I hope that's not a bad sign.

Good to know. Should I wait until after day 21 to candle? Anything specific I need to look for when I do?Heck no don't do a float test! Unless you want to make sure they are dead.
Candle.
I wouldn't wait. I'd do it right now.Good to know. Should I wait until after day 21 to candle? Anything specific I need to look for when I do?
Do I need to do anything special when I candle... like do it in a humid room etc.... so I don't mess them up in the meantimeI wouldn't wait. I'd do it right now.
Look for movement and drawn down air cells.
