Okay so I had 16eggs that went into Lockdown on Wed night around 7pm. I'm in New Zealand so nice and dark this time of year. Candle them and all looked good except 1 which I put in anyway. Thought it couldn't hurt. Eggs went into incubater on a Saturday morning 6.30 am. I came home from work on Friday at 4pm checked on eggs and one had pipped with a large hole. Hatched later 10.30pm. Was only day 20. Next 2 eggs pipped close together day 21, 1 hatching later and the other today day 22. I've got 2eggs pipped now which will probably hatch tomorrow day 23. So the remaining 11 haven't done anything yet.
Is this type of staggered hatching normal?

If these are chicken eggs, it can be normal to hatch anytime from day 20 to 23 or 24, depending on many incubation factors like temperature, which can control the rate of growth.

Yes they are chicken eggs. That you for the reply.
