my eggs havent hatched or piped

It can't internally pip at the wrong end. An internal pip can only be seen when candling. You will see the shadow of a beak inside the air cell, which should be at the fat end of the egg.
Read this. It will let you know exactly what to do and when.

Thank you but it has a pip at the wrong end I dint know what you call it but I'm still not sure what to

 

[junebuggena]

That would be an external pip. Can you see the beak? How low was the pip? Is it possible that it piped at a really low spot in the air cell? Is it cheeping? If it's making sounds, it's got air and can breathe; leave it alone.
Did you read the article I linked. It really does have everything you will ever need to know about assisted hatching.

 

[newcomer1802]

Yes I read it no I can not see a beack it basicly a circle type crack whith mor cracks going away from it

 

[junebuggena]

Is it cheeping at all?

Not that I can tell we decided to intervene and did I tiny pip were the air sack is just like the link told us are we suposed to see the bird from there or is it just soposed to be a air sack whith yellow at the bottom

If he is pipped at the bottom, you won't see a whole lot from the air cell. You can start at the air cell if you wish for an assist, but with an upside down pipper I start by enlarging the pip that was made by the chick. Once you do this or start to do this, you will know how far you can go to help by the presence of the veining. If the veins are still really thick and prominent then you know you're going to have to wait a bit longer to avoid causing the chick to bleed out. If you start as assist and have to stop becasue of this, just keep the exposed membranes moist (a q-tip with water works well) and put him back in and check on him after 45 minutes- one hour. You may have t o do this a few times before you can free him. He may even at some point finish the job himself.

If there is no prominent veining when you start the assist, then you should be able to zip right around the shell for him. If you see unabsorbed yolk-stop and leave him in the egg. At this point I wouldn't expect to see it, but you never know.

Once you have him out and in the brooder your best bet is providing water with electrolytes in it as chacnes are he'll be a bit weak from the extended hatching process.
