➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[Kiki]

Thanks all.
It never got past 75 on my monitor, although I had just added water when I took the hatching pic so it may have spiked and not read? Anyway, I appreciate the help!

The 5 that hatched are doing well

I hatch out at 50 or less on purpose.

Even more now.

Look at the 2nd picture.
I didn't add anything to bump the humidity up until minutes before the first chick hatched.
I actually just got a little wet and threw it in at about 9am. The first chick hatched at 10 am. The spikes between about 10:00 and 4:00 or all when chicks were actually hatching not because I was adding any more water.

You can actually see the yellow sponge inside of a little plastic container in the left hand lower corner too.

I just candled them all again.
I have another clear or very early quitter that I will be opening later on tonight.

I have a couple external pips now.
Tomorrow is hatch day.

I should start candling the ones that I set on the 15th.

I've already sold some of the ones that hatched earlier this week.

Hatch Day.
12 out.
I'm waiting on just 5 eggs.
The 6th egg seen is the clear/early quitter that I didn't take out last night.
I'll open it today.


I have no empty cages and I have 2 sets of babies that need to go out side which means I'm going to be butchering today.
