➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[BReeder!]

I think the 36 eggs I have ready to go right in to the bator have something to do with how calm I am.

More eggs to hatch! Yes! I am going to freak out when mine hatch. Even a 50% hatch rate will give me 50 hatchlings! It's going to be popcorn alright!
@Texas Kiki It's been exciting to follow along with your hatch so far. The videos have photos have helped me know what to expect.

I'm hope I am here to catch a few pop out Live on my YouTube channel. If so I'll post a link to the Live here in the thread when it happens.

Number one is still pretend swallowing.

Number two is making a little progress towards a zip.

Keep a close eye on #1, it could have problems. I've found out when the opening is like that ...they have a hard time trying to zip.

I think it's stuck.

I haven't decided what I am going to do yet.
I'm trying not to think about it yet.

I didn't want to say that but that usually happens when you get one that pipped that way...mushy chick.
That's why I'm saying just keep an eye on it, it might be alright, just have wait and see. If it doesn't zip before the others, then assistance maybe in order.

You don't have to sugar coat thing with me.

I might have ran this batch a little lower temp then my first quail.
I really wasn't expecting them until today.
So they better start hatching today.
I think last time I ran it at 101. This time I stayed at 99-100.

That is on the low side for a still air incubator. That is what you should run a forced air incubator at.

I never have had very good luck with assisting a quail. It seems when they get stuck, they wear themselves out and are too weak when you do assist to be able to thrive.
