    Odd year

    This has been an odd year for us. Is anyone else finding eggs are going past day 60 without pipping? Our eggs typically pip on day 56-58 but this year we have seen 62 and later. Right now we are concerned because our friends eggs are on day 69 and although he has good veins and movement none of them are pipping. Anyone else had this experience this year or in previous years? I keep my eggs at 90 and he keeps his at 88 I believe. Advise? There is a lot of debate going on about cutting them, or at least one and see what is going on.

    It has been strange this season here for me too. This year all have been pipping at 51 or 52 days. Usually they're on day 53. I also got everything late this season. Usually get clutches in April and didn't get them until June this year.

    I incubated at 88 and the first one pipped on day 59 and the last on day 65. This was my first clutch so I have no prior comparison but it was longer than the average.

    I pair year round so early or late clutches make no difference here.
    I have 4 clutches in the bator right now.
    All the girls seemed to hold on to them a little longer than normal.
