You are fine, may not see pips for a couple days yet, Day 20 is early unless your bator is running hot. Don't mess with them,
just be patient... I know it's hard!

see what happens.....you worry and then things start happening....Know that you saw them move just wait till your lower back starts hurting cause you are checking the bator every 2 minutes for action.

I know this because the exact same thing happened to me! Good luck on the hatch!!
