On day 20..and starting to worry(updated with bad news)

[lurky]

relax!!!!!!Some are early, some are late. I usually can hear them peeping the day before they hatch.
Take alot of deep breaths........remembering to exhale......and GOOD LUCK!!!!!

I can never hear anything in my forced air incubator , mine was a day late and had not piped that I could see,but on day 23 I l opened the bator and the pip was on the bottom side of the egg and the chick needed help as the membrane was like elastic.She/He is now running round.

 

[thechickman04]

well it is day 21..and i still dont have one sign of action...i dont think incubating eggs is for me

I never heard a THING from my eggs until they were completely out, and believe me.. I peeped, I listened... it's a wonder I don't have some kind of weird ear infection from having my ear pressed up to that air hole..LMAO

 

[thechickman04]

i have been listening since i got home from school..i have heard nothing...i looked through the tiny window and nothing had pipped

Try not to open the bator as they need a lot of humitity when they are hatching other wise they can get stuck to the sides of the shell and never unzip. They have to turn in the shell in order to peck a ring around the egg shell. Good luck. The 113 degree temp worries me.

it makes me worry to...when i looked in the bator today one egg wasnt set like the way i left it...it had rolled around a little..could that be a chick in there moving
