You really get the members involved; I for one feel attached to your new babies as if they are mine too

Can't wait for batch 2!

I want Lisette to pip. Her and Pumpkin have me nervous

Should I remove the eggs and dried chicks? I don't wanna hurt other babies

Don't give up hope, some can hatch a day or 2 later. If no pips in 3 or 4 days, they are late quiters.

Once they are fully dry, (you don't want them to get chilled) you can remove them. If no other eggs have pipped at that time, it's safe to open the lid without worries.

That's the only issue I am worried about Charlene has a decent nose hole. The others are all pipped except Lisette and Pumpkin.

If they are completely fluffy dry, you can remove them. Make sure your brooder is up and running, 88 to 90 degrees on one side of the brooder.

Never gonna give you up!

I swear these babies are like drunk penguins. They get active and weeble wobble everywhere. Then fall over asleep. Wish I could fall asleep like that.

I'd wait a bit longer for Charlene to hatch, you don't want to dry her out.

Technically they can go 3 days without food or water, waiting in the incubator. I don't like to go more than 24 hours, but usually it ends up being 24 hours inside the machine. They can handle it.
