Are they supposed to be rocking this early? My chickens didnt rock till day 17. I have one that started rocking this morning every time he hears my voice. I double checked, definitely only on day 21...?
 
Someone else just posted this same question a couple of days ago! Must be they're big enough to move their weight around inside the egg and produce the rocking motion you see. I've never noticed it in my duck eggs but then again I don't really watch the eggs until day 27 or so....

Talk to them! Seriously, I sound like a fool but I make sure to talk loudly with my kids or just talk to the eggs every time I turn them, so they are used to my voice. They start to really respond its so cool!
