Day 21 silkie egg help!

I agree...

When the chicks are that developed it's sometimes hard to see movement when candled. I have had chicks I marked (X) as possible quitters. Here is one.

I thought someone said it looks like it died ... but now I can't find the post.
Thank you all for your help.

That was me; I thought it was deceased but then remembered that eggs on day 21 fill almost the whole space. I mistook the air cell for something else.

Oh! Phew! Thank you! I really hope you're right!

I always try to keep the lid on mine during this time of the hatch to keep the humidity up. You don't want the little thing to get shrink wrapped if it is trying to hatch. You could wake up in the morning to a cutie running around your incubator, good luck!

Still nothing. Safe to say the chick is no longer?
