Yes! I have seen that. Thank you. I should have traced the air cells, I just didn’t think about it. I will keep it in mind for future hatches!
Here are a few more images at different angles. Sorry about the poor lighting.

Should I just stick to dry incubation for now? I don’t think the air cells are too big, but they may be a bit on the smaller side. It has been super rainy here, so hat has increased the humidity by quite a bit.

So, today is day 15 and I candled again to check development. They are looking good! I drew the air cells again and I wanted a second opinion on the size.

I also got a video of a baby chick moving around. It is so amazing to watch! This was taken on day 13 (even though the video says day 12. That was a mistake)

Very exciting! I did my first hatch a few weeks ago. Great video! I had a decent hatch rate 6/10 so hopefully since you have done one before you have a better rate!!

What kinds of eggs do you have in there?

Thank you! I think that’s a little foot on the right at the end, but it could be a beak. Either way, it’s super cool

That’s awesome! Do you have any pictures of your little ones?
They are all mixed breeds from my flock. The rooster is a speckled Sussex named espresso, and the hens are buff orpingtons, red stars, Easter riggers, barred rocks, and black astralorps, and a couple mixed breed eggs. So they will all look different! Most of the eggs are Easter eggers and some from my Easter eggers and barred rock mixes. The farm they are going to wants chicks that lay green eggs, so I tried to set mostly blue eggs.
