The incubation temperature should be at a steady 100F for the entire 21 day wait for the chick. Once hatched, the brooder box should be maintained at 100F and you slowly reduce the temperature over several weeks until the chicks can stay comfortable at the environmental temperature.

You have been incubating your eggs now for 24 days help?

You fail to confirm if the eggs you are incubating are chicken eggs but if they are, you may want to candle the eggs to ensure they are fertile. Use a strong flashlight in a dark room, shine the light into the egg and see if light shines through. A developing chick will appear as a dark spot. 24 days is past the normal 21 day incubation time for chicken eggs. You may want to give up on this batch and start over.

Will chicken eggs hatch faster if you put it in a microwave?

Nope. The egg will cook, possibly explode, but it will not hatch at all after experiencing microwaves. Fertilized eggs need a constant ambient temperature of 100.5F with a high humidity for 21 days. Nothing you do will hasten this process. Microwaving an egg is breakfast, not incubating.
