ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -It is generally said that the hen’s egg takes 21 days of favourable incubation conditions for the chicken to develop and hatch. However, this development takes 22 days – one day in the oviduct and 21 days in the incubator or nest.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chicks will typically hatch at day 21. If the fertilized eggs were cooled prior to incubation, the process might take a little longer. If you are at day 21 with no hatch, give the eggs a few more days. When the big day comes, let the chick hatch on its own.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chicken eggs should hatch 21 days after they first start in an incubator. (Remember that your eggs have already been incubated for 14 days before you receive them!) Other bird species have different incubation times. For instance, duck eggs take 28 days to hatch; goose eggs take 30 days.

Detailed explanation-4: -Between days 20 and 23, your eggs will start to hatch. Usually, this process begins on day 21, but don’t be worried if your chick is a little early or late. The baby chick does not need help hatching, so please be patient and let them start and finish this process independently.

Detailed explanation-5: -By day 19 the process of the embryo absorbing the yolk is speeding up. The chick now fills most of the egg and is ready to start hatching.
