    HELP!: Overdue Quail Chick

    Yeah I'd leave them in the incubator and don't give up on still regulating the temperature and humidity. It was hard for me to do that as I was focusing on the 12 that hatched and didn't have much time to think about the 1 that didn't. Good luck!

    HELP!: Overdue Quail Chick

    This little guy never was able to internally pip. :( had to pull the plug on the incubator yesterday because it was for sure dead and it was so sad. :(

    HELP!: Overdue Quail Chick

    I recently had 12 out of 13 eggs hatch (all within 12 hours on the expected hatch date). I have one that still hasn't hatched and now it's 2 days overdue. I candled it last night and I though I could see a feint heart beat. I also did the float test and it had the right buoyancy but it didn't...

    Thank you!! They all have cute little personalities! There were some that I thought were sick or dead, but it turns out they like to sleep in weird positions. So cute! xD

    HELP! Should I Start Lockdown A Day Early?

    :D UPDATE: So I started with 14 eggs, one was infertile. 12 hatched within 12 hours of each other just yesterday starting at 4pm! (They were just bursting out of those little shells!) I have one more to go. It's fully developed but hasn't internally pipped yet (I had to candle it well after...

    HELP! Should I Start Lockdown A Day Early?

    I think I heard one internally pip! I'm not sure though... thought I saw an egg wobble and heard a tiny cheep... but then no movement or cheep after that.

    HELP! Should I Start Lockdown A Day Early?

    Thanks guys!! I'm so excited but also very nervous!! I want them all to come out fine! Also, last night I woke up to check on them and the temperature was at 104! I have no clue how long it was like that for and I'm very worried that it might've killed them. :( I did everything I could to...

    HELP! Should I Start Lockdown A Day Early?

    They are coturnix quail and early in the incubation, the incubator ran a few degrees warmer than it should have. This could be the reason why they're wobbling a day before their lockdown. If it did pip internally, would I be able to tell without disrupting it? (Would I be able to hear anything...

    HELP! Should I Start Lockdown A Day Early?

    Day 13 just began and a few of my quail eggs also began rocking! I was reading that when you see the rocking, that means it has internally pipped? I'm not sure what to do because I was planning on going into lock down starting day 14!
