Just from what i read when they start to pip then pull it if not before. Some pp l say on here they dont ever put them in. the bator co said to have it in until pip.I have kept my hole covered with tape 3/4 of the way and the other is covered with the fan exaust. To get the humidity up though i covered it all the way.I keep reading here they need air to breath once they pip have to open them all.
If you have one rocking then they are on their way!! EXCITING!!
.Day 20 for me this morning and all is quiet with mine
If i see any movment i think i willl cry I think i will be so happy as i am not confident any will hatch ..One eggs looks in a different position than last night but i bumped the table too a little so Maybe i didnt notice the change in position then.
Just Wishful thinking!. GOOD LUCK!!

My other one hatching is resting a little. I grabbed one of my baby chicks that was born on May 28 to be by the incubator so it would hatch faster and it worked because she wouldn't stop chipping lol so I cheated a little lol.
