INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

@chicken hawk 33 Don't stress about what day it is. Given all your temp fluctuations I bet your chicks will be late. 21 days is just a guideline, they can be hatched anywhere between 19 and 24 days. Your littles will hatch when they are ready. Try and read a book or something. Do you like to read?

I still have one without a pip too. Probably won't pip until tomorrow..it's due date! Don't touch that bator any more. Let them decide which way is up and do their thing. Good luck, I can't imagine how excited you will be when you see your first pip .. probably tomorrow. I will be watching to see, and hopefully reporting on having a chick or two..mine are due tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Good,luck and yes I like to read and yes I can't wait till pip.A whole bunch of different eggs are moving now I had 9 different ones move earlier

Still no pips and an hour and nine minutes into day 20

Just please remember to relax. The worst thing for these eggs right now is you touching them. You have nurtured them, and cared for them for 18-20 days, and you did great, but now those babies need you to please just let them be so they can work their magic. You are being a good father to these chickies.

I would like to add... On my first hatch, it was Day 21. I was with the chicks I ordered the week before in the same room as the incubator. I had leaned against the dresser the incubator was on, and both tumbled to the floor. Lots of cracked eggs. Even though it was Day 21, I got one chick out of a dozen eggs all because I was being so nosy.
