Need Help Please

Well at least the chicks are within the time frame but the turkey eggs still have about a week left. Personally I didn't see my turkey eggs move until the 28th day...but that's just my experience. The only logical thing I can come up is that the eggs you found were already sat on for a few days by their mama and that'll have them hatch out sooner. I can't remember what you said you saw when you first candled them. Last time I couldn't get my humidity up over 70% but I've read some new tricks on how to possibly get it up to 80% when the time comes for me to lockdown. Only 5 more days til LD for me. Yay!! Who knows..you might come home to chickies. :)
Good luck. Keep us posted.

I candled them again Saturday an could see a lot of movement in the eggs. What appeared to be feet moving it was awesome!!! Yeah that's all I could come up with too is that the hen had already sat on the turkey eggs a few days before. I watched them for a few minutes this morning before work and didn't see any more movement just hope I didn't hurt them by turning them this morning, I guess I should have let them be.

This morning I can actually hear the chicks chirping inside the egg!! So I guess there doing fine..
 
Ive got the eggs laying flat on the little wire bottom in the bator. I've got to eggs pipping one is pipping on the top side of the largest part of the egg, and the other is on the bottom side of the largest part. The question I have is should I roll the one that is pipping on the bottom to where it's pipping on the top or let it be??
 
I would let it be..because by opening the bator you are going to jeopardize the other eggs that pipped.
 
Two chicken eggs I stuck a small wire in the vent hole and gently rolled it over. Since I did that it has made a bigger crack in the egg
