At day 24 had some temp issues last few days of lockdown which were resolved quivkly nt sure if they harmed them no pipping movement etc shall i quickly take them out to candle and what am i looking for movement noise veins air sac? Xx

You are looking for movement when candling but it will be hard to see as it should be full-ish. You may also see veins but again it's harder to see when the egg is full. I would candle if you are sure there are no external pips yet.

You may see internal pips when candling which looks like a triangle in the airsac. I would tap gently on airsac end to see if you hear anything back and put ear close to the egg.

Have they been rocking? When was the last time you candled? Are you sure you are on day 24?

There's not a lot you can do now really but wait. Sounds like your temp may have been a bit off for the incubation. Did you calibrate it?

Just get the temp and humidity right now and I'll have my fingers crossed for you.
