Can chicks in an incubator not be able to get out of their shell?
ChickenKnowledge
Yes, for several reasons some chicks never peep from the shell. Most often the problem is lack of humidity. As the chick grows in the shell moisture is used up and also evaporates from the porous shell. This lost moisture needs to be replaced by humid conditions surrounding the shell. A humidity of 65% needs to be maintained from day one through to day 18 and then increased to 80% for the final three days.

After a chick cracks the shell how long will it take for it to hatch?
This first opening of a hole in the shell is called peeping and happens on day 21. Most chicks take anywhere from 1 hour up to 24 hours to complete the task. The humidity in the incubator must be very high (85%) to allow moisture between the chick and the inner shell. Leave the peeped chicks in the incubator until they are fluffy and moving around, this also encourages the un-peeped chicks to finish emerging.

The chicks should all stay in the incubator until the hatch is complete and the chicks are fluffy and dry. They should all be moved to the brooder box at the same time. The chicks will roll the peeping eggs and that is ok. Sometimes the movement of the completed chicks will get the emerging chicks to begin and that is a good thing. Do not be hasty in removing the newly hatched chicks from the incubator, they can and should remain in there for up to 24 hrs.
