Those little webbed feet!!!

How scary!! I learned... sigh... I feel so awful admitting this... you have to put eggs large end up and pointy end down. At least coturnix eggs. I found out I killed a bunch because they were malpositioned and couldn't hatch. I read and read about incubating but somehow missed that they don't...

One more, just for you haha! It's got my heart. This one is Bumble. It cries until I come get it from the brooder and hold it.

It didn't attach.

Hahaha! Yeah they're tiny. Coturnix quail grow up to about 1 pound at jumbo size. Mine are probably 0.5-0.75lbs I think? We are calling them Bumble (Bumble Bee) and Leia (Princess Leia).

Lucy is awesome I'm a thyroid cancer survivor so I've been rooting hard for her. Here are my chickies :) My sister in law and I holding the 2 that have hatched. One has pipped too!

Oh my gracious. That's the weight of 2 of my quail eggs. That's TINY! I mean, for a duck.

Oh my goodness, I want to snuggle him!

Oh they're zipping now?! Can you spare a picture? I've been reading along haha. Also, good luck on your treatment!!! I'm 2.5 years in remission from invasive thyroid cancer. I'm sending you all my cancer-beating wishes!
