Is This Normal?

No, when I said I hoped someone with more experience would come along with advice soon, I meant with more experience than me!

?? @Chicalina wasn’t being rude, only said that they didn’t have the experience to help you.
I do feel there’s some wires crossed here.
please answer the questions I posed earlier and we’ll try to help you out.
Do you have pictures from when you candled? That sometimes helps.

OK. I do not have a pic from when i candled....But the yolk was not fully developed yet.It has all of it features and its beak is at the air hole.It is moving inside the egg.

Ok, movement and beak at the air cell is good.
What incubator are you using?

Lets look at the facts. Bantam eggs usually have a hatch time of 19 days. You're at day 24 now. If you've candled them and there is no movement, its most likely time to move on and start fresh. If you have an incubator that didnt cost above 400 dollars, you most likely have an inaccurate thermometer. Thermometers in cheaper incubators are not accurate. Same goes for the humidity. This is why you need a seperate gauge to put inside to confirm the actual temp.

You can keep those eggs in there to see if you want, but pretty soon I'd imagine they're going to start smelling and then exploding like popcorn. Candle them one more time. If there is no movement at all, i would probably toss them.

If there is movement then what you probably had was a temp drop which caused delayed progress.

Bring you temp up like 100 could you have miscounted days ?

No i have a calendar and it tells me today is 24 day. The temp stays around 99.5-100.9.
