First time incubator hatch

[Sclark0012]

We are on day 19 of barnyard mix chicken eggs (from my own chickens)! Soooo excited and nervous! I have the temp at 99.5° with 65% humidity. I want to make sure i have my settings correct as I've seen so many different humidity preferences. I want them to be happy and healthy! I haven't seen the eggs moving around yet, but I did the day 18 candle and marked the air sac, all were growing and looked like they should, chicks were all big, but i didnt see movement in all of them (hoping they were just resting). Is it normal to not see the eggs moving around at this time? Am I doing everything correctly? Any advice is greatly appreciated!!! Nervous brand new chick hatcher mama!! They are currently on lockdown, haven't opened the bator after the last candle.

Sorry, I don't know much about incubating, but congrats!
Hopefully they hatch.
I never noticed any movement in the eggs I incubated, but then again I could have been doing it all wrong!

It is very common not to see any movement at this point. I recentl hatched chicks and really didng see any movement until they started pipping
