How long after movement is seen will pipping begin?

Found this little guy making a ton of racket about 2:30am. He's moving all the other eggs around, too, normal?

Totally normal, once they get some the rest seem to move faster.

They get around like little wrecking balls! Keep it all closed up until they dry out, don't want that humidity to drop.

Congrats to you both, it's addictive!

He's still alive, but bc the little joker trampled all over the other eggs, I can only see 2 of the other 4 pipped eggs.

That's very normal. Sometimes I just have to walk away from hatching because I just want to pull the lid off and take over. (Don't do that, by the way!) Amazingly, they still hatch after being trampled and rolled around like that.

What breed(s) are you hatching?
