My eggs are 54 days old. About 9 days ago they dented inwards. I've heard that they usually hatch a week after denting in... is it normal to be taking so long?

nothing's set in stone time-wise, what temp have you incubated at? lower temps mean a longer incubation period
could the dimples be down to too low humidity? what's the hygrometer reading?

It'll be worth the wait. Take this time to chill as you'll have lots of little mouths to feed and little poops to clean soon.

Good idea lol.

Just wondering, other than them denting inwards while absorbing the yolk, are there any other signs I can look out for?
