Yeah that's what I do. I move in between hatches. Just gives them some room to move around a bit. Then I give them some lytes in water.

there is no in between hatches, there is ALWAYS someone pipped! Don't know what to do getting crowded but I have one that has only tiny bit of head out for 12 hrs now

OK here is another video, I think we have about 12 out now? I want to take them out so bad but there is one who just won't come out of the shell but I can see the head and beak.

Awwww I wonder if she is absorbing her yolk sac still... hmmm... Is there a way you can hang a big towel over you and put a humidifier in the room and QUICKLY grab the hatched chicks? Gosh that's a tough call!! I wonder if the chicks in the eggs may have a harder time pipping with being moved and rolled around so much??? Have you posted it in any other threads to get some insight?
