Exactly, I was thinking of removing the first batch of eggs quickly once they are dry( I have a mist spray bottle) and letting the othered hatch out.

I placed some eggs into the incubator like usual, but decided to place another batch in 3 days later. It is day 14, and lockdown will happen soon. If I do so, that means I will have to put my 2nd batch into lockdown on like day 12. I’ve read this does not effect them to much in later stages of...

Ok awesome will candle to check

Also i open 2 100% Dead eggs. Both with embryos i think died on the first few days, what does this mean?

My coturnix quail eggs have been at the right humidity and temp for the entire time! I calibrated the thermometer before incubation, and the day of lockdown! my eggs have developed, but I cant see any internal pip. The air cell is the right size, and is tilted slightly. Should i raise my temp?

Yeah 25 what should i do

Hi I read that chicks hatch in 21 day but can take much longer then that. I was told to wait. I waited till day 75. Any thing i can do to help these guys get out?

I would say its pretty normal for birds to consume failed young, for in the wild all that energy would go to waist, she is using it for the others. The chick pretty much gifted the others with a well fed mom

How big should a air cell be on day 8? Should it small, medium or large? I have aircells that are medium in size, riase, or lower humidity?
