Wondering if the pip is correct

[Hotpocket52]

These holes look a little small and haven't progressed in 4 hours. Should I help in a few hours if nothing happens? Just to let a little air in. Many cheeps but not sure which eggs are cheeping. Not sure if these holes are in the right position, air bubble was a good size last candling.

Put your hands in your pockets, and let nature run her course. Hatching chicks go through spells of activity and resting spells.

How exciting! They are doing just what they should be doing. Hatching is hard work and can take 24 hours. I agree with Sourland. Best to not interfere.

Thanks guys! I needed a good slap on the hand. I've got even more pipping and that one with two pips is starting on zipping!

So exciting!

Yep just let them do their thing I have some hatching myself. Just took this pick. They have been this way since 10 this morning. Im sure Im going to wake up to fluffy cuteness.

That one hatched! He was super fast, all hopes he encourages the rest. I'm already happy about my first hatch experience.

I’m by far an expert but I read it’s best to mark eggs with a pencil because ink from pens and markers can leak inside or something (not sure if I’m just talking outta my butt). Just commenting since I saw the eggs have markings that look like marker.

On a happy note: I’m so happy for your hatchlings!! Are they all done?

I think this has been thoroughly debunked. (But I still only use pencil. Just in case!)

Oh really??? Thanks for that info. I use pencil because I’m used to it, but it’s nice to know that in a tight spot if I can’t find a pencil it will be a-ok to use a pen or marker.
