Day 21

Hatched one of my 6 eggs this morning, and she has not laid still since, I have 4 eggs that pipped yesterday and one still hasn't popped is that normal? And the new born chick is it okay for her to be bumping into the eggs like crazy and spinning them everywhere?

Yes their fine. They can hatch anywhere from day 20 to 24. They open that pip to breathe and then absorb the rest of their yolk and stuff. Your good just keep an eye on em make sure your humidity doesn't go below 60% or so.

Are the pipes eggs still chirping and wiggling. If so they should start to zip soon. The on that has hatched. It is ok to knock the others. But others including me prefer to remove the hatched chick's to the broader.

Thank you, the humidity has stayed around 74%

Thats a good number. I did a little experiment at my last hatch and kept the humidity up to 75 I usually do the 60 to 65 like most do but noticed for me anyway that the higher humidity gave me a higher hatch. We all do it different on here so you'll have to find your niche and whats best for you.
