You might not. Some eggs seem almost shy, and will pip on the back side where you can't see it, then wait until it's night time to hatch. And I've had eggs take longer to hatch than 21 days even under a broody, which is both weird and stressful (for me; the hen doesn't seem to mind).

i have one more just hatched in the bator. i'm really surprised that nothing else in happening since the eggs have been rocking like crazy for a couple days now.

I still have no pips...today is day 21, technically I think day 21 begins mid afternoon...I will give them two more days then I will have to open up the bator ...
Is it possible I will have a delayed hatch because Im usung a still air incubator and my temp was between 100 and 101, not 102...Ive read the temp should be 102 in still air but the last time I incubated in a homemade incubator i kept the temp at 100.5 the whole time and they hatched..My humidity is holding steady right around 60%...I just dont understand...

Can you tell Im a bit frusterated

...I really want to meet my little frizzles

I think it is possible that you have cooler spots in your still air. Mine did until hubby added a fan.

I there are cooler spots, do you think they might still hatch, just a little delayed...? Im debating on how long i should wait and leave them in there?

CUTIE PIE!! Amazing photo, too.

**anyone know about delays with BCM eggs? I am seeing and hearing NOTHING after all...it's day 21**

I am getting antsy as my hatch date nears and stopped by to see how you guys was doing.

I think I remember hearing that itdoes take a little longer with BCM's, how much I'm not certain!

I'm playing hookie today to watch the broodies and the incubator...

Among other things.

Be patient Paintedhorsegirl mine were late too this time usually mine are very early like day 18 early.
Today is day 21
The weather has been odd here different than normal and maybe that has something to do with it.

Good luck with your hatch
