I tried to hatch out about 24 eggs that I bought online. They got here overnight, and I am using a Brisena 24-egg incubator. I candled them throughout and had roughly 14 eggs that I thought should hatch on day 21. It is day 23, and there are no pips, so I opened one up, thinking they might have died late in incubation for some reason. There was a chick there who is probably developed to day 18 from what I see as pics online, and it was ALIVE! I don't understand why they are not as developed as they should be and not hatching. how long should I wait before giving up on them? Is it possible for them to be still alive? Also, do yall have any ideas as to why they are less developed? I would like to understand if I did anything wrong, as this breed is mainly only available through hatching eggs.
Thank you in advance,
