I have been reading away, and I have found some people recommend to leave the egg until Day 25.. I swear I see the tiniest of movements, but wonder if I am imagining it? Good thing is there is no seepage or smell at all, so I am praying I wake up tomorrow morning, and I will see a fuzz ball. I think I have only seen the one picture of your chicks head. The first thing I thought was perhaps Barred Rock, as they are born with dots on their head like that. Do they all have that dot? Do they have yellow tipped wings and yellow bellies and butts? What color are their legs? If they are barred rocks, then sometimes you can get an idea if they are boys or girls by the dot on their head. Here is a picture and a link to some photos. See if you they look like this.I hope your last one lets you see it hatch! I recorded a video of one of my mine this before...you know, before the incubator had a ton of condensation on it!
One is currently zipping and the other one I still haven't seen a pip.
Worst case scenario...when I get into school tomorrow morning and if the last egg hasn't pipped what should I do? help it??
Also, does anyone know what kind of chicks I have? The kids were asking me today because they were all expecting them to be yellow!
That was the EXACT scene in my Brinsea too. The first one was so active, he was beating those other eggs up. I don't even have a pip in my remaining egg. I have been stareing at it so long, its getting me wacky! Tomorrow, unless there is a huge zip, I would just take them out and into your waiting brooder and remove those old egg shells. The chick that hatched early for me is superman. I am thinking by his behavior it may be a roo. He is bullying everyone. A fair amount of that is just normal working out the pecking order, but it's a bit much....
