I have a BR egg that was pipped this morning when I got up. The egg is clearly broken and pushed up but the shell is not removed. It has gotten only marginally larger through out the day today. He peeped at me a couple of hours ago but nothing since. Today is day 27/28. Humidity is at 70% - the temp has been fluctuating throughout the entire hatch but I stuck them in a brand new bator for lockdown and temp has been between 99 and 100.5 since thursday night. Does the whole all day pip with no shell removed sound ok for a turkey?

Thanks for your help!

ETA to correct the days of incubation.

My first turkey pipped at 26 days and that was early turkeys are 28 days if it is that soon I don't think that it is a good thing go over to the turkey board and ask I don't kow that much I just hatched my first turkeys too
 
Ooops - I meant day 28
