It's after 7pm & another chick just hatched....but it doesn't look well.
Wings & legs splayed out in weird position.
Don't see any more PiPs, so might be time to end the hatch?
Just in time to clean bator & fill with new eggs I'm buying @ MF.

THANX for all the positive feedback. (*o*)

Craggie - I unplugged the bator & was cleaning up the mess. 5 minutes later I hear chirping & sure enough there is a PiP going on!!!!!
Hubby said to leave it on until I come home from MF
It's like this hatch doesn't want to ever stop!!!!'n

So I have been following this post intermittently. Just went through from the beginning. Still kind of mixed up on when and how many etc. Could I ask a favour? Would you post a summary for us please? Like you might do a report for the teacher. I set - eggs in the incubator on -date- . That would put day 21 -date- . They started hatching- date- ETC.

Just a summary of how it went, how many hatched, over what time period. If you do a good job of this, I will mark it and maybe give you a gold star and a note on your report card that you work well with others.

This sounds exactly like my hatch. 3 days long
Except you were patient and didn't kill any
What was your temp and humidity
I would also be interested in a detailed summary to compare to mine
I'm on my next hatch and put temp up by 1/2 degree to see if that changes things
Congrats again
