Patience is key to hatching. Just wait and see what happens. Your humidity is fine. My most successful hatch, I had a humidity of 55%. Once they start pipping, the humidity increases on its own. When I had the humidity at 55%, once they pipped, it jumped up to 70% within half an hour! They'll be fine.

I saw a video of people in central America where it is hot and super-humid all summer long, hatching in a "styrobator" that didn't even have a top on it, no thermostat, no electrical parts at all. The chicks just hatched right there in an open bator on the kitchen table. It was pretty neat.

Here's the egg! I am so excited! This is my first time hatching eggs! I so didn't expect it 4 days early!

Hatching is soooo stressful

and soooo exciting

Lots of deep breaths

 

[Chick1043]

Thanks! Okay, now it cracked the membrane open a little bit.. I don't know if that's good or not.. You can tell it's breathing. Do I do anything? If so, what?

This is exciting. Hope it all works out for you.

Go egg go.

Thanks! It cracked through the membrane and if it pips hard enough I can see a glimpse of it's beak. I think it thinks to just keep piping in one area..Is that normal?

It broke through even more!! Yay!! I'm guessing it's gonna be black! I got six eggs from a friend I don't know what breeds I have or they have! I think it's gonna be black because the is a tiny black feather that has been stuck to the egg!
