    Question on hatching quail and chicks

    That last one was the strangest thing. I have never had a chick/chicken just not absorb veins if still alive. The couple I assisted if they had veins I put them back and a few hours later they are gone. This one was at least 10 hrs with no change in them besides the ones that got crusty

    Question on hatching quail and chicks

    not sure how long I will have them. When do their feathers start coming in? I am going to be selling them but would love to see them grow a bit. But only have a tote for them to live in for now (it is good size but not huge.)

    Question on hatching quail and chicks

    LOL I have a camera on them so peek in on the camera when I am not peeking in the incubator. haahaa. I am going CRAZY waiting! I do with chickens too! I start to convince myself that they have all died and that is why they aren't zipping even though I know they need to absorb the yolk...

    Question on hatching quail and chicks

    Thanks. Ya not worried about the pipped ones but hate that 1 isn't pipped yet. Lol. I hate this part of hatching. It feels like it has been forever. Lol. Sure they will either wait till I go to bed or till I leave for work then all hatch. Lol
