Evidently not because I have had cheeping all morning and just now have my first 2 pips!!!

I only heard peeping once this morning and my son heard it once after. Maybe sleeping? Congrats on your pips! I keep checking every 5 mins too! Gotta keep myself busy with other stuff!

It means they have pipped the air cell, but not necessarily the shell.

Takes up to 24 hours to hatch after a pip. I recommend you go do something to keep your mind off it.

sounds like sucess to me the chickens got it handled from here till they dry

Still no progress...but still cheeping off and on. I wanna chick NOW!!!!! I am way to impatient for this. I should have timed it better and had them hatch while I was still working this is driving me nuts LOL... which isn't a far drive.
