First Time Chicken Mama!

[KellyStephanie]

Hi everyone!
I am excited to be part of this forum! So many new things to learn raising chicks for the first time. I started with 10 eggs in my incubator. 7 hatched on day 21, one hatched day 22 and this is day 23 and it looks like another one is pipping. The other one is not showing any signs of movement. I'm assuming it's not viable. How long should I wait on that last one? Seems to be mixed opinions.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I'm not sure. Do you hear any peeping coming from it?

I can't tell. The last hatchling is still in there and is loud

Between the new hatchling in there and the other egg that has pipped and is peeping it's hard to tell
