God...don't be impressed. haha. Over half my success with this species is luck.
As far as cutting...it depends on each clutch. Its a feeling I get more than anything.
Sometimes One will pip and I'll cut em, sometimes I pip em because I'm impatient...some I haven't pipped at all.
I just have to see how the eggs look and feel, how much weight they've lost, how much moisture is in the egg box....to many variables to give a concrete answer for.
Just happy these made it.
Cheers,
