    Bobwhite quail air sacs day 4 candleing?

    I am new to hatching bobwhite quail eggs. I thought this whole hatch was going to be a dud because they took 4 days to arrive in mail and it was freezing out in Alaska. I’m seeing development at 4 days of incubation in almost all 43 eggs after setting for 24hrs. I’m curious if I should be seeing...

    Best Incubators for Beginners

    Looking for my first egg incubator to hatch quail eggs. I am willing to pay more if I will have a good survival rate. It will be my first time incubating eggs (quail eggs) and I don’t want anything too hard to use. I also am not at home all the time, so maybe one with an egg turner. Thanks!

However one thing that never made sense to me about incubating eggs was the three-day "lockdown" period where the eggs just sit there "moving into position to hatch". Hens that are...
