Just had to share. This is our first attempt at hatching eggs. We started with 15 and have 12 on Day 20. This morning I woke up and looked in and noticed one of the eggs has a little crack through it and I can hear peeps!! I'm so excited. Right now, we have removed the little barrier things that kept them lined up and upright for the first part of the incubation, but still have the eggs lined up together. The one hatch seems to have moved itself to the side and a little apart from the rest on it's own overnight (it was on the end anyway by chance). Do I need to spread them out or will they take care of that on their own? Also, should I place them totally on their side or still try to keep them angled down a bit? I added a picture of the current setups. We took out the bars that were in there becuase the instruction manual for the incubator said to do so 2 days before hatching. Should I spread the eggs out more, or how should i position them? The egg on it's side did that on it's own. The two middle ones have also cracked their eggs.
