hi, I am wondering if anyone who has incubated shipped eggs had any hatch after day 21. I have incubated seven and one hatched on day 19, one on 20, and two today, the 21st of incubation. There are three left. They don’t seem to be making any noise or rocking around. How long should I wait until I give up on them? The humidity is always between 60 and 70 and the temp has been very stable. The hatchlings did play soccer with the remaining eggs until they were ready for the brooder Though. Any thoughts? Thank you:)
 
3 out of 7 for shipped eggs is a decent hatch. What day are you on? How were the air cells? Sometimes it can take shipped eggs a little longer than normal especially if they had messed up air cells. Have you candled to see if they have movement, that would be my next step.
 
Thank you! I have not done anything but check them for pipping near a full blowing humidifier today And put them back in place. Things seemed good with candling, but that was early on. Maybe I should candle again. I think 3 of 7 is ok. I imagine shipping can be rough. UPSP had them upside down and there was a ding in the box. It looked roughed up despite clear instructions. I’ll wait a two day and if still and quiet ill find a nice place under a pretty tree for them.
