we've pipped, and I'm getting impatient

[ma2babygurl13]

Got 2 Turkey Eggs, one pipped early this morning the other pipped around noon, They don't seem to be making much progress, but there is some. I guess it is just a slow going process, but I am getting anxious! Anyone else got eggs hatching today?

When you hear them chirping is that what you call pipping? Ours have been going at it all day. We have 3 with cracks in them that we can see so far. It's so exciting!!!!

Be patient!!! Could take up to 24 hrs!!!!

yeah I know I am just so worried about them! Here is a pic I took about an hour ago, now in the same egg you can see a beak poke through and we've had a glimpse of its head!!!

Pipping is when they first start the crack in the egg.


As for the poster... P A T I E N C E !! It takes awhile for a reason!!!

Yep it takes some time! Our turkeys took about 30 hours from pip to zip but well worth the wait!!
