Day 22 of incubation and no chicks yet???

[KaitNicole]

Two babies finally hatched this morning. Now to just wait for some more to pip

Congratulations on your first hatches! Remember to keep the humidity high and avoid removing those chicks. You don't want the others to dry out. Most important if the others have external pips. Best of luck to you.

Thank you!! Three total now. They're moving around so much and rolling all the other eggs. Is this ok? I think they may have cracked another egg by moving it because to me it doesn't look like a pip.

The eggs will be OK. I think the peeping and movement of the chicks encourages the others to emerge. I believe that is a pip. Its on the correct end of the egg. Look close to see if the beak is in there!

That's a pip!

Congrats good luck I'm waiting I'm at day 14 can't wait

 

[KaitNicole]

Thanks everyone! Yes I do believe it is a pip, I can see a pointy little beak attempting to breK through!

It's now the morning of day 24 and only 4 chicks have hatched of a possible 35. Can I expect anymore?

Is it a still air or forced air incubator and what temp and humidity did you incubate at? What's your humidity at now?
