Good morning Froda we're all waiting to see you. Come on Froda you got this.

I also have a question about a malpositioned egg -

G, Girdy has pipped kind of in the middle towards the small end. I’m not planning on intervening until necessary, but has anyone had any experience with a malpositioned chick being able to hatch on their own successfully? Here’s a pictureView attachment 4292944


It isn’t too bad, but not ideal. Just wondering your thoughts!

Since it's pipped, just give it some time to see if it makes progress. If no progress in 24 hours from the first moment you noticed the pip, then I'd intercede. Here is an article on it if you need. https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/guide-to-assisted-hatching-for-all-poultry.72886/

I have had several like that in the past I get from shipped eggs usually. Most of the time they make it out on their own. A couple of times, I've had to help a little by chipping the eggshell around its head area.

I second what @Debbie292d said, I've had some like that hatch just fine and others need a little assist.

Come on little eggies, keep hatching!
You can do it pebble!

Thank you guys. Egg R is pipped correctly, and I can see its beak coming out and it is alive, but has been pipped with little progress for over 24 hours. Should I give it a little more time, and then intervene? I’m afraid to open the incubator because all the other eggs have pipped as well. Humidity is 77 right now, as another one just hatched

Happy hatch day, chickies!
And YAY, JUSTIN! Way to go!
Come along now, King, time to complete the duo!

And Nugget hatched too!

Would you mind restating all who have hatched so far?
