Can you help me hatch my first batch of eggs

[Silkiebegins]

It should internally pip in the next couple of days and externally pip about a day after that.you you have the turner off.

what does that look like when you candle? Is it bad to candle right now? I just put the flash light on the bottom of the egg to see the inside without moving the egg.

Should just be dark, I would leave alone and let it do it's thing.

It's day 20 now though and still no pip. So will it hatch around day 23 if everything goes well?

Hatch day is supposed to be 21, I had them hatch on 20-22 in my last hatch. Just be patient with it.

Its day 21 and still no internal pip. There is movement. It also did move down way closer to where its touching the air cell but not breaking into the air cell. Does that mean the chick has no egg tooth? Also do they pip and hatch the same day? Also they're silkie bantam eggs, I don't know if that's valuable information.

They can take up to 24 hours to hatch after externally pipping. I would worry about it yet, it will most likely be fine.

And no it doesn't mean that it doesn't have a egg tooth.

Ok, and just out of curiosity when they externally pip they break into the air cell?

They would have already broken into it by the time they externally pip

 

[Silkiebegins]

It broke into the air cell. Is there an estimated time it will pip?
