Oh no LeviS that's awful! Hopefully the rest will be ok. I had to open my incubator a couple of times to ajust the temp and add more water, and my eggs made it - so hopefully yours will be fine!

I've now got 5 baby chicks and another 2 eggs still to hatch......

I might not be on this thread much longer.................I have seven broody hens.........I no longer need an incubator.

I'm starting to get worried now. My last two eggs don't seem to be doing anything. One of them has the beginning of a pip in the shell but it's been like that for about 5 hours, the other one has not pipped as far as i can tell. The first 5 all pipped and hatched pretty quickly, one after the other. These last two haven't been doing anything.......Should i give them till tomorrow or till tonight? Can the chicks stay in the incubator till tomorrow? They're pecking each other, i want to move them under the red lamp as soon as i can.

if they are fluffed up and dry you can do either..it is up to you , if you decide to move them snatch them quick so your humidity doesn't drop
