it's Day 21 and still NOTHING
No pips, sounds, or movement (that I've seen).Put them in 3 weeks ago today (late afternoon).
Trying not to freak out and failing.
UPDATE
So as we were candling them and feeling really unsure of what we were supposed to be seeing (cause most of them looked as we were told they should - larger air cell, very dark at the bottom, etc), my mom suddenly pointed to the one I was holding and said 'Wait, is that a hole?!' And I realized I could hear cheeping and it was pipping.
I quickly popped it back in, moistened the sponge (which I think is the cause of the whiffiness), and closed it up. I think maybe because of the time it took for temperature to stabilize and come up (cheap styro incubator), we are a day behind.
Fingers crossed!
