Hey guys, on April 16th I put 7 eggs in my incubator (little giant 9200). This is my first time hatching and I’m curious what everyone’s longest hatch was.
I know Monday was day 21 and that is typically when they should hatch. I candled them last night and see movement in all but about 2. How much longer should I wait for them to hatch?
Is there anything I should do?

Thanks in advance for your advice.
 
This late, I'm guessing that your temperatures were low. If they were moving, I guess you could wait. I am thinking with it being this late, your temps were probably low.
 
Hey, im new to all this too. Im on day 27 and mine are still hatching. I have had 1 every day since day 24 ill wait until this cutie pie dries out and ill check for anymore pippings. My first hatch was the same. We were hasty and after one hatched on day 25 we did a float test then binned them. Later me and my partners mum got them out to check on the development of them -we were just nosey to see if they had died early, never developed etc. The 1st was a yolk. The second and third were full chickens... we didnt open anymore after that... we should have left them longer. The one that hatched is beautiful (although im sure its a boy) no problems even at day 25 hatch. Maybe our bator is too cold...., with this current hatch i plan to wait until there is no sign of any life even if it is day 30! I now have 4 healthy chicks. And still some eggs in there. Im happy to be patient this time. Nothing worse than grabbing some back out of the bin and cracking them to find a fully formed potential living chick in your hand good luck all
Hope this helps
