Float Testing, Checking Egg Viability For Late Or Overdue Hatching

[Nabiki]

Sry I just joined haven't figured out how to work this forum yet so do I candle today?

I would leave them alone this close to hatch. Wait at least two days before candling.

No worries on learning the site. Here are a couple videos that might help you.

For some reason, both on this post and the one about button quail, I'm seeing black boxes with "This video is unavailable" while looking here on the forum. I haven't changed anything on my end and used to be able to see videos directly. Odd.

Edit to add: I went to a different browser and it works just fine. Stupid Internet...

If you're on day 21 with chicken eggs, I'd be inclined to leave them in the incubator for a day or two longer. 21 days is the norm, but if the thermometer was inaccurate and temp was low, it's not abnormal for them to take a bit longer. It appears that you originally set 9 eggs and 7 have hatched? When did the other eggs hatch and do the chicks seem OK?

No the others were no good i had 3 start to develop but the 3rd didn't make it into lockdown just 2 did egg #7 and egg #8. Egg 8 was active when going into lockdown 7 was very little, #8 started wobbling last night but not today so I just candled both and no movement no internal pip that I can see and no chirping wondering if I should open them?
