The hatching rate of chicks decreases significantly the longer they are kept at a cooler temperature (around 65 degrees F) before being put into an incubator. At low enough temperatures there will be no cell division however at the proper temperature of 99.8 degrees F the heart is visible and there are signs of blood circulation and heart beat at two days after the start of incubation.
It is not recommended to keep eggs more than 5 days without incubation because they become weak and the hatching rate significantly decreases with time.

No. It't the same as hatching chicken eggs.
There is no certain number of eggs a chicken has to lay before any can hatch. The requirements for an egg hatching are as follows: 1. A rooster to fertilize the eggs. 2. The hen's willingness to sit on the eggs for at least 21 days.
Fertile chicken eggs hatch in about 21 days, given warm temperatures and proper movement of the eggs by the hen. If you don't have a rooster in your flock, the hens won't lay fertile eggs and they'll just spoil.

Fungus gnat eggs can remain dormant for about 4 to 6 days before hatching.
the incubation period for chicken eggs is 21 days, however, sometimes it takes a bit longer so it is always safe to give the eggs around 26 days.
no because the mother will squash the egg and cause it to die
you hatch eggs to grow the chicks into chickens for their meat and eggs to eat
