Does anyone have any suggestions or how long should I wait if no chics appear or is this going to be to hot to leave on the eggs I sent in pictures of that were peeping this morning are warming nicely one peeped or should I cut light off occasionally so won't overheat babies and I pray this way literly won't kill them

Are you able to measure the temperature at all? Try to keep the temp about 100F and the humidity 70% If you have any way of measuring that (can buy a hygrometer online or at a pet store). I would wait until at least day 24 after eggs were laid (do you have any idea when that was?) before calling it quits. I think I might have answered this in another thread already, but here's a good link again in case I haven't:
