I vote sometime before morning.

I vote sometime before morning.

So mine should be about the same. 15 internally pipped and I can hear peeping. If I make peeping noises they start rocking.

You guys convinced me to hatch now my mind is blown!

One twin internally pipped the other was still pushing on the air sac... I will not touch, I will not touch, I will not touch

While rocking and cheeping is not uncommon at this stage, I do actually have a small pip on an egg... not that I opened the incubator to check.

You put me at ease saying stuff like that because people act like your chicks will instantly die when you open up the incubator

The other one may have its head down on the bottom where there is no air cell.
Now is the time to start thinking about what you are going to do.
Just start thinking.
Don't do yet.

They can if you shock them, or the humidity drops.

I open my bator 7345 times during lock down.
But remember...I am lucky.
