Need help Day 21 no signs of hatching yet!

[Trippytippy28]

if your heat is low then that can cause them to hatch later than day 21. If there are veins and movement then all is still good and they may just need more time to cook. Do you have a calibrated thermometer in there?

I just rechecked it with another thermometer and it's reading the same thing. I'm just worried they won't hatch bc it's been over 21 days . I set them Saturday night on February 11th and it's now February 27th. Again this is my first time trying to hatch my own eggs and I'm doing it with a homemade incubator not a bought one.

if you set them Feb 11 they should hatch this Sat March 4th so they still have a bit to go. you are only on day 16. Or did you mean Sat Feb 4th?

That's only 16 days not 21.

It was the 11th I candled them on the 18 th thinking that was the last time I could candle them. And I did it again on Sunday. So I'm ok and there ok ?

I would candle them again. If they have veins and still moving hopefully all is well even though you are past the day. Maybe temp is off? sorry I am not more help.

Is it trying to pip?

Is this one trying to pip? It's the only one I see movement out of . One of them takes up the whole shell except the air cell and I can't see movement or vanes
