How Long Does Hatching Take. Hatching can take place over several days. For chickens, run the incubator for 24 days (3 days more than normal hatch time).For ducks and turkeys run the incubator for 32 days (4 days more than normal hatch time).It is better not to help a chick/duckling/poult crack out of its shell. If you do, they almost always die (unless you follow the instructions in the next paragraphs).atching can take place over several days. For chickens, run the incubator for 24 days (3 days more than normal hatch time).
For a chicken, it takes 21 days â¦ from the time the egg is laid to the time the chick hatches. The embryo needs food, water and oxygen to grow, so thin red blood vessels spread out from this spot over the yolk and then all around the inside of the shell.his is often a worry to novice breeders. Once the chick starts to peep or break open the shell it can take as long as 24 hours to complete the job.
