Have been getting a charge out of the latest arrivals. I don't know how successful it could be considered to have four new chicks from a couple dozen of eggs, but it was the first time. I would like to know from anyone how long past 21 days should I keep the eggs expecting more to hatch? I would hate to get rid of the remainder of the eggs if I should wait a little longer, please advise.
I, personally, candle once I have no more action or pips. If I see any sign of life I leave them. If I don't see any sign of life, I call it and do eggtopsies. It is rare, (not impossible, but rare) to have hatchers 24 hours after your last hatcher. If you aren't comfortable calling it. Give it 24-48 hours after the last hatcher and re-candle.
