Sure does, I have another two in there that I added a few hours later and they are pipping too. I have a potential 14 our of 14 at the moment. 12 are only for the comp and I know which ones they are.

Got up this morning to some little fluffies in the incubator. Looking like it is going to be 100% hatch. There are two left to go, one is almost out and the last one is pipping well. The two that were not in the comp have hatched as well. My brooder's cup over runneth...lol So at the moment we have 5 light colour and 7 dark. Shelle just commented that two are actually going to hatch on the right date...lol I will update the last two as things happen.

Only one left to go, the one just hatched had to be helped out as the membrane had stuck fast to its feathers and there is no way it was getting out by itself. It is now still in the incubator with lots of bits of shell stuck to it. Poor thing, but it would not stay still for me to get it off so I will see how it goes when it has completely dried out.

I finished up using warm water to get it off as it was quite distressed with all the dried gunk on it. There was a very stiff piece on the back of its neck and when I got that off it settled down. It is still a bit crispy but I have just placed it in the brooder with the others and it seems to be fine. The last egg has not made much progress but I can hear it still working. I will give it a few more hours and it doesn't progress I will help it out.
