I went down to check temps and humidity before I went to bed.......Tomorrow is day 19 for some eggs in there and what do I see when I open it to add a little water.......an egg that is pipped and peeping. I was gonna wait till in the morning to switch them over to the hatcher, but needless to say that got done tonight. There are 3 pipped so far and as I put them over I candled them and several more were in the air cell already. Hopefully I'll have some babies in the morning!!

Katy, I have had them hatch in the turner. Bet you have some babies in the morning
 
I've got one out this morning and one of the other pips is larger.

Julie.....friday is day 21 for my eggs from you!!
 
Gotta get to work, but just a quick update.......5 hatched and another 3 or 4 pipped that I can see. They're Blue/black/Splash Orps. Bamachicken's eggs are due on friday, but I may take them out of the turner tonight since these last ones started early!!
 
After reading this yesterday, I had the "I'm glad mine haven't done that" thought in my head. Not even a hour later I go down to the basement to get things together to move my eggs out of the turner to get ready to hatch, well, it happened to me too. I had 2 eggs pipped on day 18 in the turner. One is starting to make the pip a little bigger, and the other has been rocking like crazy. I have to go to work this afternoon, so I may miss the action.
