what is internal and external pipping?

[jenbell83]

I should just move them into my garage. its so hot and humid here. i could prolly hatch them just sitting out..(san antonio,tx...) im just kidding. i wouldnt risk it. might get too hot and humid.

I hatch all mine in my garage but it's attached to my house so it isn't as hot but it is pretty humid. I haven't ever had any pip internally before the 3 day lock down. I have refilled water and quickly candled during lock down and I can tell you that for mine they pip internally and then usually within 24hr they pip externally.

I can tell some of them started internal pip yesterday. so ill prolly lock them down sometime today. it gets so hot here..last week above 101f that sometimes it gets hot in the house beyond my control. so it brought the incubator temp up alot during the day. maybe thats why they pipped a little early?? i dont know but i bought a really bright flash light from lows so when i do lock them down i can still see in the eggs somewhat from the glass...if they are close enough. i cant see in the ones that arent directly under the windows
