I have had to open my bator right at hatch before (I helped two chicks) anyway, if your room is nice and warm and you don't dilly-dally when opening and closing the bator, it doesn't KILL everything in the house - its not that big of a deal if you're fast.

but it can and will mess with the humidty in a LG, or at least it does mine anyhow, that's why i say do not open the bator up for anyreason till all have hatched. william

okay guys! thanks!...i see the egg moving a bit...still no further progress on the crack....how long should it take them to get their beak out enough to fully breath? thats what i am worried about now!!..that he is suffocating in there....can they suffocate in the shell? this is nothing like the quail that just hatched...i didnt even see anything with them until a big head was popped out already!...

they hatch fast! <quail*... these are my first chicken eggs...and thanks so much for helping!....

 

[redhen]

there is still nothing else happening with that crack....is he suffocating in there?? his beak is not through yet...

"She" (

) is going to be fine

Remember...it can take 24 hours for them to hatch from the time that they actually pip the shell.

Resist! Resist!

 

[deerman]

no they will not suffocate, give them 24 hours after they pip the shell

 

[redhen]

thanks deerman!..i'm trying to sit on my hands....
