I have one that is going on 20 hours and I am getting anxious. There are 5 pips no hatches and I am just ready to give up already. I need encouragement. Please, share your pip to hatch stories to help me keep my sanity.
 
48hrs +. I've had some pip 16-20hrs before any other pipped and then be the last ones to hatch after the others which is another 24hrs or more later. Generally I don't expect a chick in less than 10-12hrs from the first pip. If they pip in the evening I make myself go to bed cause I know it's unlikely I'll have a chick before I wake up the next morning and often not until that afternoon.
 
28 hours!
