Who's Setting Eggs This Week[end]? [August 8-14]

I have four pips and I can hear chirping! I have 18 out of the original 20 Blue Splash/Wheaten Ameraucana's that made it this far, day 19. Out of my 10 White Ameraucanas I don't think ANY of them made it. The eggs are very hard to see through so I haven't thrown any of them out. Those 10 are due to hatch 5 days after the original 20. All are shipped eggs.
 
Jim although 103 csn be deadly i only a very short time they can be ok.Someone told me in shipping theirs went up that high and he still got some.Plus ifit goes up or down a while it take the egg a while to get to that same temp so you could be ok anyway.
 
My# 10 came out finally he chirps loudly but seems weak.Will stand then sort of sink down.The others want to pick on him so i put him back by himself after i gave him a few drops of water with food crumbs and poli vi sol in it.Didnt take much but might work.
Also the lone egg i checked it day22 today and sadly it had tried to pip got thru the shell but not the membrane but it was face down so somehow it must have smothered or shrunk wrapped not sure.kept the humidity high until just now..I pull them membrane away touched its beak nothing.So sad he made it that far then died.:
 
And now I'm second guessing myself :( Maybe I could have tried to tape her legs or something. I just felt awful that 15 hours later they were still curled and she couldn't more around except on her belly.

I guess there was a reason she didn't hatch herself
trying to make my own mind up about assisted hatch.My one guy i asisted is still a mess i have to feed.He can stand up now butis unbalaned stand one foot atop the other but has to lean on the wall for balance The other one is ok now stil ltoo small butgrowing.
Think you ate right when they need assist something may be wrong with a foot or leg or they could hatch.I guess natures way
 
My RIRs are finally done hatching. Took 4 days to hatch. Started on day 19 and finished on day 23. Total of 28 chicks. 26 RIR, 1 Light Braham and 1 unknown chick. Out of 44 eggs. Now I am waiting on my seremas to start hatching. I am on day 19.

Wow 4 days!That was stretched out!
 
I am sooo excited mine are popping like pop corn i love this!!!! Finally after 3i attempts and 2i epic fails a good hatch!!! I have 2 to out a blue and a buff. And few zippers and pippers lol
 
I have a question if they have not absorbed the whole yolk will it be ok? I have one that zipped and hatched in 20 min and some of the yolk is showing:(. And it's a buff silkie
