I am on day 22 and I don't have any pipping, wobbling or amything going on. I am using a still air and my temp has been consistently at 101 except when I candle it of course dropped a bit but went right back up. This is my 1st hatch and I'm afraid I did something wrong.

What are you hatching?
Did you use a turner or turn by hand?
What humidity did you have during incubation and when did you do lockdown?
Has development been on track as you did your candling?
 
I hand turned, and as far as the humidity, I kept it around 50%. Locked down at day 18 and brought up humidity to 70%. I was hard to see development since all my eggs are so dark, and I don't have an actual candler I used a flashlight but seemed to be developing normally. On day 18 before lock down they all seemed dark with big air sacs. I thought I saw movement in a couple bit not sure.
 
As far as breed, hmmmm. When I got them they were all supposed to be leghorns. My roo looks like to be a Belgian cuckoo and the other a cochin. And the hens all leghorns but 2 that I'm not even sure what they are.
