Is it a boy.. or is it a girl..

I thought for sure boy.. but the brown boys have foam, and are starting to crow

My triples all have foam now.

it may be....i’m not up on my colors completely yet...i just know autumn amber was a possibility in the rare assortment. this batch has several red range, tibetan tuxedo, at least 1 more pearl and several that i didn’t have before. had to assist a few last night (wrong end and middle pippers) they aren’t doing too wellmay have to figure out an icu to get some nutridrench in them. doubtful any more will hatch healthy now because of humidity dropi kept it up well yesterday but it fell to 35% overnight.

I've hatched out at 40% so I wouldn't worry yet.

60 babies. I only got 50% hatch but that was expected. It was freezing and raining the week I was collecting eggs. I'll start collecting again next week. Maybe I'll have better weather. These are for my friend that lives down the road. She got me started so I'm repaying the favor.

60!

Batch #2 = I think we are up to 18. One pip. Will check after work and move all the dry ones to the brooder. Some are very active. Like popcorn!

Batch #1 look like small quail now. I like it when they sing to me. Cage is working well.

Now, weekend to finish the other one.

How did you do that? Are you vent sexing? That is a 12.5% chance of having all 3 boys. Sounds like this will solve a housing problem as soon as they are large enough.

Crazy Lady watched 2 come out of the shell with me this morning. Really awesome. Funny to watch a head pop out and then get stepped on by 3 others playing chase. What a way to arrive!

Hello new world!
Boot to the head. 3x.

I just see foam on the dirt in the cage when I am sitting there watching them.


I have no idea how all three ended up boys. I think I remember thinking they were all girls at the beginning.

Batch 2.
My 19.
I think there are 8 boys and 11 are girls.
I think.


BTW the triplets might all die this weekend.
They look big enough.
