Fellow IAs, I'm on day 22 on shipped eggs, some have pipped last night but still haven't hatched...what could be causing the delay?

What time did you set your eggs...I always mark when they are due to hatch but after resting shipped eggs it really means my day 21 usually starts late at night.. it seems my shipped eggs are always a tad late hatching..
 
Well it has been some time since I last posted in here. Had to move and finally got things settled. Of course I went straight to hatching eggs. Had 3 incubators running with araucana eggs. Chicks hatched for three weekends in a row. Took two weeks off and now have some Lay Buckeyes in on day 8. I think I have caught the bug again...feels good to be back :)

Welcome back to hatching!! lol Doesn't it feel great-- the anticipation, the thrill of zipping shells . . . I have McCathy Buckeyes-- he did the incubating-- just love how they run for the scrambled eggs. THey are 2 weeks old.

Good luck with the Lay chicks-- praying you have a good hatch!!
 
So I have been running the Teachers incubators for a few days. The one with a fan is very stable. I have made a mark on the dial so she can get it in the vicinity if needed. The other one without a fan does vary from 102-97. I took the plugs out and put a note to NOT USE THEM. We just need to find a screw or bolt to hold the little fan in place. I think she will do just fine this time.
