Eggs chirping on day 23 but no pips

No more ended up hatching... but there was a heart beat until this morning.
I like to give them benefit of the doubt but sometimes it just doesn't work out... can't complain! 70% Hatch rate.
My broody defiantly had a better hatch rate then I did though

That is a good hatch rate esp for time of year. I think that since most hatched on time your temps were OK but maybe some eggs took longer to get up to temp????

Thanks! I agree!
Only reason I hatched so early was because it was convenient to pick up the eggs.. and it's been warm here until hatch day! Haha of coarse
