We are all the same way you are right now. My day 21 is tomorrow and everyone stopped moving. I have had 5 early and starting to get worried about the rest. You still have up to 4 days that it could hatch. I have also had 2 zipped for 2 days they are killin me watching them they are still moving and peeping so I know they are alive. Just wish they would come out already. It is nerve wracking waiting.Hi, I hope I'm not overstepping by jumping in here. I'm still new to the whole chicken world - though I will say the bug bit me HARD! I'm in my first lockdown - unfortunately only 1 egg made it to lock down (from 3 from our own flock - breda hens and a sultan rooster...long story) and it's been 21 days (as of tonight). So far, humidity and temp has been constant but I'm worried because the egg isn't moving much and hasn't pipped yet.
I know I'm probably just anxious and worried for no reason but I thought maybe if people who just hatched told me the same thing I'd calm my tiny *** down!

URGGGGG!
I'm going to come clean, when I first thought about getting into hatching these babies I read through this section of the forum and kept thinking "psh, I'd be able to sleep" "psh, I'd be able to not check on them ever 15 minutes"
I didn't sleep for 3 days my first hatch!!!! Lol
....I was wrong.
I set up the incubator on my desk so I can work while staring at the baby egg.
JUST PEEP ONCE!!! ONCE!!!
ok...I'm ok...
