Hello! I am incubating some shipped Marans eggs.
On day 18 they started chirping, and the eggs would rock around a little from the chicks moving inside. I thought it was a little early to be hearing them but decided to let them be. Today is day 20, and I no longer hear any chirping nor movement.
I'm worried they started pipping too soon, and are dieing in the eggs.
Is this normal? Should I just leave them alone and hope they're resting for their big day tomorrow? Or should I create a hole and investigate?
