Congrats everyone with new little chicks and good luck everyone with pips !!

I ended up with 11 hatching 1 didnt make it but having 10 live chicks makes this my best hatch ever !

Day 23

We have not seen any shaking in awhile and haven't heard any chirping ever. I thought all of them were dead. I pipped one of the eggs. No internal pip. We saw movement and the membrane is wrinkled and looked dry to me, I don't know what is a normal membrane? I saw a small blood spot so I stopped and put him back in the bator. In tears now because I'm afraid that I'll probably killed him now.

So now I am confused on what I should do with this one and the remaining eggs? Should I float test the rest and candle? Should I pip the other ones? Increase humidity? Just wait? Any help would be appreciated.

was day 19 today (3/10) and lots of rolling. 2 internal pips as we hear peeping, especially from one in particular. Has anyone ever done like the hatcheries and put a small hole in the shell at the air sac so they won't run out of air before hatching? Just wondering. There hasn't been much more movement in the biggest egg- it may have been a double yolk but I've seen it rock last night and once this afternoon. Dh is the only one that will be home tomorrow and with all the frequent peeping he will probably get to watch the early hatch:-( He acts like he isn't interested but when he thought he heard a loud peep this afternoon he went straight to the bator I told him he better text me pics since I played the videos with chicks hatching at the vent holes and the eggs went crazy! One rocked so hard it knocked into another one.

LOL

resting after a long day! Had 4 make it all the way to zipping. 3 hatched and played soccer with the slow poke, rolled him and his beak relocated away from air hole. In the hour dh left for work and I returned from work it ran out of air:-( Already gone by the time I got to peeling shell for it. The first chick to hatch came from the biggest egg and is double the size of the others. Dh said it was bullying the other 2 in the bator already! Biggest hatched around 2:00, others within minutes of each other around 4:00.
