19 chicks as of this morning. All but 4 have pipped from this set of 35. I'll post a video or picture soon.
Very early this morning I opened the hatcher to add water and do a little quick housekeeping and one of the chicks kicked out an egg that had not pipped. It fell 3 feet to the floor and shattered. I carefully picked it up and set it back in the hatcher and about 3 hours later it shed what was left of its shell and went to moving around. It still had a small yolk sack that has since been absorbed and the chick looks healthy. I may have to name that one "Crash".
