day 16

I've had quail for a while but always bought chicks! Today is day 16 on my very first eggs I have ever hatched. I am so excited and nervous!! I actually think I see the first pip! But I honestly have no idea what I'm doing! I sure hope I did everything right! :fl:wee:clap:celebrate:eek::jumpy

I have worked hard for about a week to prepare a small makeshift coop inside of a larger coop and run that is unsafe. I have. A wire dog crate that I made sides for and a small hardware cloth run coming off of it. Well, I put the final touches on it thus afternoon and planned on moving my broody...

I check my eggs twice a day and this morning I realized there were crystals growing on three of them. What could be the problem?

Hi All, I am currently incubating 4 button eggs... I originally ordered 15, but they were stuck in the post too long (about 6 days, shipped 2 days after collection) and most of them didn't make it :( Today is the 16th day of incubation, and yesterday, since I didn't really see any signs of...
