dont have any pips in my eggs yet? when should they start to pip?

I wouldn't look for anything until day 21. Sometimes they start pipping sooner than that, but typically it is day 21. Hang in there! They will start hatching before you know it!

No problem! I understand the nervous thing! I've been there too.

If everything happens on day 21 you know that you've done your job well...keeping the temp. within range, etc.

I've never even had a pip on day 20 so I don't look for anything until day 21.

I'm glad I found this thread! Was beginning to worry that I have no pipping yet (eggs on day 20 today) . I know they were all alive when I candled them three days ago! Will try to chill until tomorrow.......!!
