my silkies hatched day 19/ I'm on day 20 i'll have to take them out tomorrow or saturday to get them access to food and water.You dont neeeeeeeeeddddd to check for pips LOL just if they are stuck zipping!! then you can help them if longer than an hour!
What day is this? candle day 22 if you wish and have no externals!!! if you see life in one close it back up and wait.
My earliest hatchling was born yesterday.
I was not prepared for them to come on day 19 - but my son screwed up the heat in my incubator and nearly nuked this batch. It got up to 104+ for a few hours. I'm lucky they even lived.

BUT I think we're close to me being able to lead them around the grounds to knock down brush all over. When I try to sneak off they always notice and follow me back, so I guess I need my eno and a book.
