So right now I'm on day 20 with 1 very defined external pip, 2 slight external pips, and 1 chick that I know has an internal pip. In addition to all the eggs in the incubator, I have two eggs that I added in 4-5 days later. Once these first chicks hatch out and dry off, will it be ok to open the lid of the incubator to get the chicks out with the other two eggs still in there? I have heard that if you open the lid while the eggs are hatching that it can kill the chicks.
