Wrong Hatch date?

[StacysHatch]

This is my first time ever attempting to hatch my own eggs! I recently Read somewhere on here that when you first place your eggs in the incubator, if placed in the evening you won’t count day 1 until the next day, is that correct? I placed My Eggs March 26th at around 7pm and calculated my hatch date from that point which would be today (April 16th) so would that mean Tomorrow is actually the 21st day and the day they are really supposed to hatch? is that a possible reason why i’m not seeing pipping yet? HELP PLEASE!!

Yes, day one is 24 hours after you placed the eggs. So March 26 is day 0 and March 27 would be day 1. Good luck!

I think today for you is day 21 (if I counted correctly). Not all eggs will hatch on day 21. Depending on your humidity and temperature levels, it could be later.

April 17th is your hatch date.

But wouldn’t tomorrow be 21 days if March 27th would be considered day 1?

that makes sense now, thank you!

Yes, chicken hatch cycle is 21 days, give or take 1 day before or after. Due to cool areas in your incubator.

I did the math in my head so I wasn't sure if it was today or tomorrow.
