➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[Nabiki]

What color is coming?

It's going to be a mix with the hope of getting some pansies and lavender manchurians from the batch.

Yes very Exciting I know you said the 17th and 18th to candle for fertility but i just couldn't help myself so i candled tonight i now have 73ish eggs left i can't say that i got a very accurate count but thats pretty close to the correct count. there were a couple of eggs that were suspect they just had a couple of blood lines like blood vessels but they weren't very defined but i kept them in the bator just in case.

Seeing just a blood looking line at this stage is perfect.


Don't remove any eggs until at least day ten.

I didn't know you were a total newb.

That's overall around 70% fertile which is average. Did you happen to label/separate by source of eggs to check fertility from each source??

What did you do with the others? Can you put them back in? You only set tonight? Or yesterday? Still too early to tell isn’t it?
