Hi just want to know if there is any reason thay peep on the small side of the egg?...some thing im doing or just happens
 
I had 6 not hatch or peep when I cracked them open thay where all at the wrong side it looked like thay tried to peck the egg but didnt get through
 
I think when chicks are in the egg shell on days 1-17, they are turned the "wrong" way. At lockdown, the chicks start to turn towards the air cell. Chicks that don't turn are usually either too big for the shell of are hatched to early.
