They sure do. I fell asleep watching them and when I woke up I hurried to see if it hatched yet and it didnt. Think it waited for me!! haha.. In this picture, if you hold it to the side and candle it you can see the beak break through the air cell, if yours doesn't have an air cell them its broken through I think and will start hatching soon...

We hatched one cute fluffy yellow chick yesterday, went to church, came home, and surprise! Our cat ate ( well she ate its head) our chick. She got in our locked room, clawed off the glass panels, and carried it away. One chick out of 21 eggs.

I got eggs from a friend yesterday. The temp went to 105 for a while last night then 103 this morning got it back down though. Did I cook them?

We had ONE hatch, but it doesn't look like the hen that laid it OR any of the males in the yard. Wonder how that happens? LOL.
