Help! I have put 43 chicks into lockdown, and a bunch have hatched, but some of my copper Maran eggs haven't pipped! Should I help them? It is currently day 23 for them now.
 
When did the others hatch? If they hatched on day 21, the rest have likely quit.
Have you candled to see if there is any movement? Did you candle prior to lockdown to see if they developed or were viable?

Yes. I looked inside the ones that didnt have cracks in them only to find one dead chick and one with just egg yolk. PS, i still have some eggs that havnt hatched yet. It is currently day 23.
 
(I have 4 different age groups. The Maran eggs were the oldest for the youngest its day 23 today)
