Today is day 21 for chicken eggs. One rocked a little but thats it and I haven't heard and peeps. Should I be worried?
 
No, you're probably fine. I didn't hear cheeps from my first batch until they externally pipped. I wouldn't worry. Especially with the rocking egg.
 
Mine usually start hatching on day 20, or pipping at least, but I do believe my incubator runs a little hot.
If your temp is right, most of your babies should hatch on Day 21, some being early, some being late.
But it’s also possible for them to be a little behind, especially if incubator is running a little cool.

Until they pip, you won’t hear any noise, and until the externally pip, it will be muffled cheeps. If you can without opening the incubator, carefully inspect the eggs. Sometimes a chick will have pipped and you won’t even notice it!
