Be patient! If they are moving it's only a matter of time before they will pip. 21 days is only an average, sometimes it takes a little longer.

thanks should i be able to hair peeping from outside the incubator becouse i dont want to open the incubator becouse its lockdown to hold them to my ear or see if they have internally piped

I would think that would depend on the incubator and how it's built. If they are moving there's a good chance that they are piped internally, but give it another day or so before you hit the panic button.
