Here is a pic of my second peep to hatch. It is a dominique. I must say I love my Brinsea!!!!! I have 3 babies out and 4 pips.

wow it looks like First Born a UK programme in the 90s about what you would get if you spliced monkey DNA with a humans it was a drama. the baby came out like that.
take no notice of me having a moment??????????

I am on day 20 of my incubation and do not hear a sound coming out of the eggs. No pipping or zipping. Should I be worried?

Don't know if you remember my telling you that my chicks usually start pipping and sometimes hatch on day 20. Well I put 20 eggs in lock down Wednesday night because Saturday will be day 21. I set them 11 P.M. on the 6th making three weeks the 27th (tomorrow). I just now looked in the incubator and I have pips already in 4 eggs and I can hear peeping in there. I'd almost bet that there will be a couple hatch before I go to bed tonight. Usually my hatch is done by the end of day 21. Gosh, I got to get my brooder box ready. lol I sort of running behind with this hatch. Oh well, it doesn't take long to put a pad in the bottom of the box and some food and water in there. lol

These chicks are from eggs from my Don Nelson Heritage Rhode Island Red hens that I hatched last year. I really wasn't wanting to set any right now but someone was wanting hatching eggs and after I started saving the eggs to send, they changed their mind so decided I'd put them in the bator.

I thought I had posted some chick pics to this thread but guess I missed this one, these were from my hatch on Wend.

The number is 6. My gosh, what mouthy kids. They must be hungry already. Geez zo whiz. lol I really didn't fool to see how many more pips etc yet. I don't bother them to mush on hatch day. Just a peek now and then.
