A few things... just incase your not aware.... when she is up and running around you can add water and food, I sprinkle on the floor. ADD marbles or clean stones to the water dish so she dont drown herself. Her first poos will be green dont freak LOL
She is a cutie! Keep us updated.

Lol, won't freak. She's #9, so I'm already seeing lots of green poops, haha. This is actually the quietest I've seen her. In the incubator she was all over the place, climbing (and then falling) off of anything she could. Do you think I will be able to transfer her into the brooder with the other 8 once she dries and is stable?
Thursday night at 7:30 would have been the start of day 21. I had 2 hatch Wednesday morning, 2 in the evening, and then 4 more on Thursday throughout the day. I'm not holding much hope for the remaining 2 eggs, but this is my first time hatching, and I'm using the cheap LG 9200 (never would've bothered if I had known what I do now) and have struggled with temps and humidity the entire time. I'm still pretty dang proud with my results, though, so I will not complain one bit.

Ya, I bet you could put her with the others once she is strong and dry enough. Just keep an eye on her with the older chicks. They dont mind newcomers, but just to be safe you will want to watch her. Have the other 2 even pippped yet?
rosemi,
You're one heck of a broody!

No. 
Nothing whatsoever out of the last two. Disappointing, but I can't complain about an 82% hatch rate on my first try ever...

Now I'm a little more worried. I keep checking on her, and I've noticed a few burn marks from when she bumped into the heating element in the incubator. grr. Hopefully she will be okay.
grr. Hopefully she will be okay.
Just a thought. Can she hear the other chicks? She may be trying to find them if she is alone and the others are making noise. It is instinct for them to stay together and under something.
Maybe a teddy bear or something for her to snuggle under will calm her a little bit. Don't know what to do about the burn marks
