OTHER 2 ARE STILL VERY STILL NO PIP AND I DONT HEAR A PEEP ANYPLACE WHICH IS CONCERNING TO ME,. BUT THIS HOUSE WITH THE DOGS BARKING AND MOVNG AROUND UNDER THE BED A PEEP MIGHT BE DROWNED OUT FROM THE CLOSET ACROSS THE ROOM.
I WOKE UP LISTENING THOUGH.
I THOUGHT I HEARD SOMETHING AS IWOKE UP THAT SOUNDED LIKE SOMEONE KNAWING ON DRYWALL COULD THAT BE THE ZIP SOUND?
WELL MAYBE IT WAS ONE OF MY DOGS KNAWING ON DRYWALL.. NEVER KNOW HERE AT LEAST I KNOW I MADE IT TO THE ZIP POINT ANYWAY ..THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY. I GAVE THEM ALL A PEP TALK LAST NIGHT MAYBE IT HELPED.
THINK I WILL GO IN PULL UP A CHAIR AND PEEP A CHICK PEEP RALLY SONG"" rah rah, pip pip who is gonna zip zip! cheep cheep cheep go egglets!" FOR THEM... MIGHT GET THEM GOING.

Today is Day 21, I have only one chick out but there are 3 that seem to be racing each other out of the shell and only 4 more pipped. The very first egg to pip still hasn't done anything :(
 
UPDATE - Hatch numbers
Set 8 eggs under broody. 2 removed at 9 days (1 infertile, 1 early death)
3 easy hatches - Corny, Popsicle, and Lollypop
1 assisted hatch - (the one that got stepped on by broody) Lucky Butt - doing great now!
1 late death - upon examination must've suffocated or been shrinkwrapped. Didn't even break through inner membrane to air sack.

Total hatch rate: 50%
 
We finally have a chick! No more pips... Really thinking we may only get one baby out of the 12 eggs we set.

How many did you start with?.Good question for all really. See the % of hatches from % set. Oh and if they are shipped eggs too.

Mine were shipped.
Started with 8 .One came broken, One had a pinhole crack (but i kept it).It is still in the bator but not much hope as it looked only 1/2 full at day17.
2 or 3 were clear.
Another looks weird not empty but sort of like a large lighter thing so kept it...who knows.

So 3 looked really good at day10
Same 3 looked good at day 17. Watching for only seconds only saw only the one move day17..
So really maybe so far 3 out of 8 ok. Dont smell one bad thing in there though and 5 eggs are in in case.

GREAT a baby!!
I will be nosey here...What breed are they?
What day is it in the hatch? Maybe its too early yet for the rest.
Anything you know of go wrong during the whole hatch?
What was your humidity and temp the first 18 days ?and the last 3 days?.

I would like to know from eveyone b/c maybe we can learn something from others hatches
My humidity was 25-35 for first 18 days. The last 3 days 64-75 mostly (today 80)
Only had 3 eggs of 8 viable on day 10 and 18.
2 clear-2 cracked on delivery
Mine were shipped
1 of 3 pipping so far day 21 and its early 8;30 am here.I set them on June 22 at about 8 am.
Good luck to you on your other eggs.
Maybe we give up too soon.I would give them until day 23 or so i was told last time.
 
Wow! I have been gone for 4 days and there have been 183 post here.Thats great!
However in my absence, my son forgot to turn the eggs a couple times!!!!!

Tomorrow is lock down so I am not going to get my hopes up on a great hatch. I had some in the other bator with the turnner I will move with them to lockdown. Maybe we will get a few at least? The rest on the turnner are banty eggs and not due for lockdown till next Friday. I used the turnner for them because the are so small and there were a lot of them to turn!!!
 
Srd, he was pipped when I woke up yesterday morning. I removed a little of te pipped shell and I can see the beak, he's moving...I hope he decides to come out soon.
