New Hatcher here

I thought I was on day 19, I have one chick that has hatched, it is trying to move all around the incubator, with all the unhatched eggs, he doesn't have much room. Will it be ok? this is a verticle hatchers and I'm worried that it might hurt itself, or the other eggs....
Just anxious as this is my first time. It's still wet, so I know not to move it but geez it's making me crazy.

It should be fine.

Do you have a pic you can post of the incubator you have?

I'm sure it's fluffed by now and maybe in the brooder as I write this.

Some chicks come out early and some come out late.

Happy hatching

here it is. 2 have now hatched, they seem to be doing well.... I think one more is pipping, but don't see any activity so I am assuming things are going as they should... so exciting!
