hi, incubator didnt hatch after 21 days, wat to do, my introduction

I see you are a fairly new member. First, what incubator are you using? How has the temperature been and the humidity? If the temperature runs high the chicks will usually hatch a day or two early, if the temperature ran low then they could hatch a day or two or so later. If the humidity is too high during incubation the chicks can drown because during incubation the eggs need to loose some moisture. You can have a fully formed dead chick in the egg.

My temperature ran low and my humidity on the high side. At day 21 I didn't have and pips. I thought the chicks were dead so I opened an egg and the chick was still alive. There still may be hope. I thought this chick was a quitter so I marked the egg (X). To my surprise it hatched on day 25.
