I woke up to him at 2 this morning

My hatch was set on the 8th. So Friday was DY21. 4 of the 6 have hatched, 1 LS x RIR and 3 SLW. one of each left in the bator, no signs of pipping. The last to pip was about 4pm yesterday. How long do I leave it before I should inspect (maybe float test Ive heard mentioned here and a peek inside?) If one is just positioned badly I wouldnt want to leave it too long...

Today is Dy22, do I leave it until 2morrow? Its best for me to do stuff at night as I have 2 yr old twins!!

I'll post pics as soon as get a chance!!

Guess there was a chick in my batch

Can anyone tell me what this little chicken is? I know the duck is a pekin.

Snuggling under a Black New Jersey Giant. She is only 6 weeks old, and due to an accident lost a leg and now lives in the brooder. She gets around fine these days, and is willing to fluff and let the chicks under her! In the top left is one of the chicks from last weeks hatch she snuggles with too. Wonder what she is going to do if all 25 hatch???

i checked my suspect egg early on day 23. (candled on Dy 22 and didnt see signs of life, but a large air space) I opened up the air space, then the membrane, it hadnt made it but was a late death as its head was tucked under wing. Dont know if the air space was too big and thats why he went or whether it got larger in the last couple of days since he died?

2 year old wins! I'm surprised you can get anything done! I had a chick hatch today and it was day 24. I had 2 hatch yesterday, day 23. So doesn't hurt to wait!

I have 6 still in the bator with big air space and this is day 24...and see no signs of life. Have no idea why they didn't hatch!
