Still no babies... ? help?

[redneckgirl]

okay so today was day 21 for my broody, she is setting on seven eggs, so far so good. but still no chicks hatching! does it sometimes take an extra day or is there a bigger problem?

thanks!

if she has good eggs under her you could be 2 to 3 more days before any will hatch.

Okay, because the last time I candled they were developing. just check on her and still no chicks..

if you can sneak a peak, look for any pips in the eggs. it does generally take the full 21-24 days so expect them anytime in there. good luck!

its day 25 for an egg that was leftover after the dog stole some... I'm gonna crack it open...

So Definitely took out the two older eggs she had, no chicks. well, theyre was some development but looks like they died within the first week.

I think I'm going go ahead and crack the rest of her eggs, they are on day 22 and still no pips...

ETA: just cracked upon all five other eggs, all rotten...
