IA (incubators anonymous) September Hatches?

Pics
We're up to 3 hatched chicks and 2 pipped. One has a big hole and I can see it's beak and it breathing. The humidity has gone up with each chick's hatching. The last pipped egg hasn't broken through the membrane yet so I can't tell anything with it. The last egg so far hasn't done anything either. I truly didn't expect anything to make it from this group of eggs. I'm very thrilled to have 3 live chicks and hope the other 2 pips make it.
 
Congrats! These last two are only on day 19 and quite active so I do hope. I have to remind myself I only set 9. And most were a total shot in the dark genetically etc. I have hope for my next hatches and also tweaked a few things for it. And this time around I’ll be done with my separate Hatcher. I’m still in though with these two and have 2 hatches planned and due end of this month
 
I don't think I'm hatching anymore for a while after these. I've got a lot of projects and birds to raise up, so I will take a break.

We're up to 4 chicks and a 5th zipping. The last egg hasn't pipped or anything yet. So after these are moved to the brooder, I'll check it.
 
I candled the 6th egg after the 5th chick hatched. It had quit around lockdown time it appears. Our humidity was high so we had a lot of egg contents on the chicks. I wound up having to give the last chick a bath because it was so bad. Boy it's fluffing up better than the others now. Lol
 
I am pleased to say that all but 2 eggs are showing signs of development! 1 Bielefelder egg and 1 of my backyard mix don't look fertile and candled clear. So, not to count my chickens before they're hatched, but that's 15 eggs looking good.
Yay! Yeah, counting them is hard NOT to do. Good luck!

5 out of 6 ain't bad!
