How long after eggs are wiggling in the bator should I expect a pip?

Their starting to move around a little in there. I'm on day 18. When do you think I should expect my first pip?

Not till sometime Day 20 or 21. Actually, many times, they quit moving just before pipping.

Good to know, thanks Cynthia.

WAY COOL!!! THEY MOVE!!!

I know, I'm so green. I'm on day 12 of my first ever hatch.

I'm using a hen and not a bator, but still exciting.

I am so glad to hear that Cynthia. I actually have one thats not moving much this morning and I was worried about it. It's the only one of the EE's that I've been sure is alive so I dont want to lose it.
P.Acres I cant wait to try it with a broody. Now I'm jealous of you LoL. I thought I had a hen getting interested the other day and then she jumped off the nest and never went back.

I cant wait to let them hatch some babies. Lord knows they'd have to be better at it than me. Out of 19 eggs I only have 4-5 left. Man I hope the rest hatch o.k.

BTW this is my first time too. I hope I do better next time.
Good luck to the rest of you as well.
