short story , set eggs under mom 4/20, she got off the nest on Saturday, and we found them, they were still alive ......made emergency bator, have been trying to do my best with temps and humidity but temp has been between 95-99 and humidity either really high or really low......today found circular hairline cracks in one the eggs. i dont know what pipping looks like but technically 5/11 should be day 21 so i wasn't going to lock down till wend/thurs is it possible for it to be pipping this early, or did it maybe just get a hairline crack ... does anyone have pics of pipping they could post for example. supposedly hubby said it was moving but i saw nothing/hear nothing, unfortunately i opened the bator to adjust the humidity after he saw the cracks, Should i candle the eggs, i also need to turn them should i turn them? today is day 15/16 (do you count the day you set them as day one?) so i was planing on candling today and day 18 right before lock down....... i candled 2 days ago and they where all alive and well except for the one i accidentally cracked and tried to save with wax, i dont think it worked but i put her back anyways in case i was wrong. I need pics and suggestions please......
 
thank you......mine does not exactly look like that, it is not pushed out and broken like that first pic. more of a center point with hairline fratures spiraling out from it. i saw some pics of a internal pip which looked more like it but everything i have found on the net says you can't see the internal pips unless you are candling and this cracking i can see with a bare eye.
so should i just not worry then and go on lock down as planed on wedesday. should i candle?
 
o and should i turn them i only turned them once yeasterday cause after i saw the craking i would be turning the egg onto this area if i turn them so hoping someone could tell me if that was a good idea or not....
