Chickens

First time doing a incubator . Just curious how long do you leave the eggs in to hatch . I have 2 chicks now but 3 eggs left and it’s day 22

Welcome to BYC!! I found this, for your incubator question: "Fertile chicken eggs take around 21 days to hatch. Some breeds take a little less and some a little longer. If the egg has not hatched after 25 days, it should be removed from the broody hen or incubator. Eggs need constant heat during the full incubation period for the embryo to develop into a chick." Hope this helps!! Good luck!!
