Ran down this morning just knowing I'd see something going on in there! But alas... it was not meant to be. Maybe today???
 
Maybe they are sleeping in. Give it some time.
 
Hang in there, at least to day 23.
I don't know if it's just my bad hearing

or just the background sound of the fan in the bator but I have never heard any peeping before the pipping begins.
So, don't think nothing is going on in there.

I had the same worry on my first hatch. I thought I heard a couple of little chirps, but then convinced myself that it was just wishful thinking.
My first 2 hatched late in Day 22.
Good Luck, be patient.
 
Be prepared to hang in there a couple of days more. Several people have posted that their chicks are hatching a couple of days late...probably from the cold weather. Keep us posted!

I'm hanging in! Thanks for the encouragement. Only 4 of my eggs are on day 21. The other 8 are on day 19. I actually locked down on day 19 of the first set to accommodate the second. That might make a difference. I've been pretty good this morning and only sat by the bator for a little while.
