Who else is hatching on Thursday

I have fifteen due to hatch tomorrow and one just hatched. A few more have pipped. The one that hatched is rolling all the other eggs all over the place! More go into lockdown in another incubator tomorrow.
 
It's day 20, and no pips yet. I hear a lot of chirping, and can see the sides of the eggs flexing. I figure we might have a couple pipped tonight, and probably some others tomorrow.

This evening will end day 19 for me. I'm hoping that I get some a little early. Mainly the serama eggs! This is my first hatch in my new Brinsea Eco and it's full of BCM and serama.

I had 3 babies last night and another that had a problem early this morning. Most of this is in another thread but I'll go over some of it now- the shell was stuck to its head, covering one eye and a nostril and had glued its head into a horrible position. I took the entire bator in the bathroom with a hot shower running. I pulled the 3 dry ones out and put them in the brooder and did the painstaking, slow process of wetting the membrane and removing bits of shell until it could straighten its neck and see and breath. It was looking a bit bedraggled when I got done, but after a 2.5 hour nap, was up and running around the bator. I sneaked home to check!

I've got two chicks out, 3 pipped, and a forth pipped at wrong end. That one may hatch ok, It's starting to make the hole bigger, so hopefully it makes it.

Grats on everyone else who has hatches going on.

From yesterday afternoon through this afternoon I have had 17 hatch out of 22 that went into lockdown ~ 7 are BBS Ameraucanas and 10 are Olive Eggers (Cuckoo Maran/Ameraucana). I also lost 1 Ameraucana which died midway through zipping

I still have 2 Ameraucana & 2 OE eggs unpipped in the bator ~ I will be giving them a few more days, hoping for late bloomers.

These are the 17 that hatched...

Well I still have one that has shown nothing at this time (day22) will give it until late tomorrow. out of the total 33 I lost 2 before lock down 1 got shrink wrapped 1 still in there leaving a grand total of 29 out of 33. NOW the question is what do I do with 29 babies chicks. I was hoping for 1/2 that not 29.
