Hatch with me: WHODAT?

they can pip and stay pipped for hours!!

I have had some pip, and not hatch out for 24 hours or more. Just give them some time, and don't open that 'bator too much! :)

I wont anymore! Thanks for the help!
 
If you go on BYC in the learning section, there's a section devoted to using an incubator. I read it last night. It was very informative and now I can't wait to try to hatch some eggs. Hope I have better luck this year than last, but I think I know where I went wrong both times, so hopefully this year I'll get some!
 
Ive been on that site, it very informative. We still have just one hatchling, over the night I can tell the progress that the other eggs have made, but none hatched. Would the fact that this chick came from a smaller egg have anything to do with it hatching early? I think it probably does since no one else has hatched. We are in the middle of Day 21 now....

Sounds like popcorn in my room :D
Hoping for no "duds" :D
Only looks 4 arent going to do anything, but they were developing. IF they are piping its on the underside where I cant view them.........
 
Barred, sometimes it can take a few chicks 23 days before they hatch. Late bloomers are common. Don't count out the eggs without visable pips yet.

Once you think the hatching is all done and you remove the chicks, you can do a quick candling of the eggs to check for movement.

Well last night I woke up several times because I have the brooder lamp on in there :P

QA, okay I will keep that in mind. Thanks SO much for your help!
