➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

Do it! Sleep now since you know there will be popcorn popping later.

I'm worried one is going to pip on the underneath side and I won't see it.


I have them sitting/laying on a turning tray thing to keep them still. I am not dealing with the bowling ball game again.
I'm wondering now if I should take them out of the turner tray.
Crap I can't make my mind up about anything.

I'm wondering now if I should take them out of the turner tray though.

If it were me, I would take them out so they can roll around to zip. It's completely up to you though!

I MISSED SO MUCH

Not too much! It's just a waiting game.

Shizzle sticks...I knew it.
A pip underneath!
I moved it up.
And....it looks like it's in the middle of the egg!

C'mon little ones, let's get this thing moving!

I have to leave tomorrow for a few hours.
I'm a worried mess about having to do so.
I might have to cancel my plans.

I don't think I will be able to actually leave if they all have not hatched yet.
No way in the world I'm going to be able to leave a hatched quail in the bator that long.

It really won't hurt a hatched chick to remain in the incubator for a few hours.

As long as the turner is off it will not hurt the eggs to remain in the turner tray.

I actually took the tray off the turner and just set it in the bator.
Too late I just moved them out of the tray.

I know it won't hurt them...I'm just worried they will flip flop into the dish of water I have in there.

Tape or bend the edges to keep a piece of hardware cloth over it.

They probably won't do that, but if it worries you enough then I would put something over the top of it or change it out for another sponge.

*Edit: Over the top of it as in some type of mesh so enough evaporation can happen for the humidity.
