My very first hatch, was going very well... We hatched 4 quails on day 16, one chick hatched over 24 hours ago, would have been day 19 that we saw it pip, and now its been over 24 hours since that. We saw one egg rocking last night, about 12 hours ago but nothing since.
We have had real trouble with humidity and have tried everything we have read on this forum to get the humidity above 40%. The first day of lockdown, day 18 was perfect at 60%, filled the trays etc. Later that night my husband saw the water had gone down as had the humidity, so he topped it back up to where we had filled it previously and it has never been the same since!!
I fear its to late for these cicks and am so disappointed and sad... We were all looking forward to chicks.
Is there anything we can do to try and salvage these babies.....
Thanks in advance
