lol i am right where you are. But i only have one flopping around. I was told to leave them in until they are at least 80% dry. They can stay in there for up to 48 hours...some can even go to day 3. I leave them in because i think the peeping from the hatched chick is a rally cry to tell the others it's time to hatch. Once the other eggs hear the peeping chick, usually for me pips tend to follow.

Hey evonne! love the picture...i went ahead and snapped one too!

I hope your babies are dong well. How many more pips do you have??

Your Welcome! I have two of them. Had another but I think something got her, and they were all hens, I'm not sure what a roo will look like.

So was the BO the roo and pullet was the mamma? That's my situation, I guess it would look the same...If I get a roo, I'll show you, I bet they are so cool looking....

Yeah, Bo is the roo.

Oh yeah, love the pictures! I have none to share yet. Mine are all still just a pip. Today is day 20, so still plenty of time (I hope!)..
Good luck all!

oohh crap.... okay, i just noticed that one of the pips that hasn't done anything else pipped below the air pocket thing... should i flake a piece of the shell off and make sure he can breath???

I'm telling you, this week is a mess....out of 25 eggs...and i'm on day 21... i just had 3 hatch...one that is really really sticky looking. then, even though the hygrometer reads 65 percent, my temps dropped to 92??? huh??? so i just got it up to 98. now i looked, and there is a chick with 1/2 a shell still stuck to his butt and some egg whites. called my dads friend and they told me to quickly take out the 3 so they dont damage that one, and wrap the egg shell in a wet paper towel. so i did. now i wonder even though the humidity is still reading 65 percent, how much damage did i do to the other eggs that are pipped?
