We just had a chick that hatched tonight, it started peeping as it was still hatching.

Added: It depends on the chick. This morning I had a chick pip a small amount and now it is 4:00 in the evening. It is barely really starting to pip the egg. Another chick that was hatching this morning just came out of the shell about an hour ago. I was worried the little one didn't make it or something. But everything seems just fine.

How much time does it take for a chicken to come out of the egg once it starts hatching?

Once the chick has started to "PIP" it will take from two hours up to 24 hours. It depends on the humidity in the incubator and the strength of the chick. some very determined chicks can break open the shell and emerge in a matter of hours.


How long can a chick live in its shell after breaking through the air sac I have lost one chick in the shell already?

It can take up to 24 hours for the chick to complete its escape. It is best not to help the chick break out of the shell as you can damage the chick trying to help. There is a supply of blood in the shell membrane that will weaken the chick if broken early. Increase the humidity in the incubator, lack of moisture is the main reason for die off in the shell during peeping. try for 75% humidity.

Peeping and Pipping The chick will call out inside the egg as it starts to pip or break open the shell. As it makes the small holes in a circle from the inside you can often hear it making that plaintive little "Peep" "Peep" sound.
