Looks like we may have an early bird. Did a candling to check on them, & someone is already working on their internal pip. Incubator conditions have been perfect, so no idea what this chick is thinking.

Will be monitoring it closely.

It wants to get out of there and get on with life!

It wants to get out of there and get on with life!

Will be doing so 3, days, or so early. Expecting it to hatch at day #17, or #18, so doing lockdown tomorrow.

It's almost internally pipped. Should be sometime tomorrow.

I'm back. My phone was out of service.

Update: 2 working on internal pips, & 1-2 look like they're starting to shadow.

Also, new number on chicks alive in shells is 6. Better then nothing.

Not a whole lot different to update on yet.

But, I have confirmed that all 3 Malay chicks are cockerels. I need more girls.

2, still working on internal pips. They're slow pokes. 2, shadowing.

Today is day #18.

Will check them after dinner. Been busy.

Total of 4 working on internal pips now. The first two are getting closer.

4 still working on internal pips, & 1 starting to shadow.

Day #19. Starting to think the ones that started working on internal pips early may end up hatching on day 21. But we'll see.
I'll be candling in a bit.
