    Day 24 bobwhite quail incubation - nothing

    Hi all! I'm on day 24 of incubation for my bobwhite quail. Temp is 99F, humidity is 70-75%. I put them in lockdown day 20. I have a still air LG. I had one pip about 15 hours ago but I don't think it broke the membrane. It was just a small break in the shell. It moved slightly a few hours ago...

    Isn't it great how these critters allow us to bond with others? :) I just put my eggs into lockdown - hopefully I will see some success!

    Yes it is! However it is quite old and honestly I can't believe even still works. I've had it for eight years. If even one quail hatches, I will be ecstatic!

    Okay! I received my eggs from Stromberg's actually and I'm very impressed. All of the 33 were fertile, only three were cracked. :)

    Was my 40-50% okay through the incubation period? I saw varying percentages so I assumed just keeping the water tray full and an extra wet sponge in the incubator would be okay. And thanks! I have 28% protein gamebird chick starter that I'll grind up for them and netting to put over my brooder! :)

    Thank you firestomp! I'm going to put a few more sponges in there to up the humidity. It's been at 40-50%. So maybe I should wait until tomorrow night for lockdown? Everything I had read said day 20 so that's why I planned to tonight

    Hey guys! This is my first time hatching bobwhite quail and I have a quick question! I just candled them all as today is day 20 and there was movement/complete opaqueness in 28/33 eggs (yay!). However, I noticed that only about 10 out of the 28 were almost completely opaque and the others still...
