What day should you hear cheeping inside the egg?

Hi,
Talk back to it as it may cheep back to you! It will have internally peeped if you can hear it so will arrive in the next 24hrs! There's nothing much more you can do with the temp but keep your fingers crossed. The temp will be lower at the bottom and higher at the top of the incubator. If able to lower it then ok but otherwise get that brooder warm for the new arrival!
 
Still cheeping like mad! Hope he's okay in there, i keep spraying water into the incubator to keep the humidity up. And talking to him lots too! Still has not zipped. But the brooder is already made up for him so he has a little house ready and waiting!
 
No not at the moment, i wanted to make sure he was alright before i definitely told people i wanted chicks. I'll start looking tomorrow.

Just had a look at him and he has made a little hole in the shell. Can see his beak. He seems to be breathing heavily, is this normal?
 
I think he's coming out the small end? There bantam eggs so i dont know, but he's coming out on one of the ends of the egg. Currently zipped half the egg open and has now hit the bottom of the floor. But he is still cheeping! And i am still spraying water on him.
