➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

Have you done this before?
Are you going to need a to make a safety hole since there is no air cell?

No, they just pip straight into the outside air instead of inside the airsac

This may sound crazy but they were shipped 23 DAYS AGO and were either layed that day or the day before!

So they have all hatched but this one?
I'm confused.
Help me!

Is this normal?
Or Ok?

Quick backstory:

The eggs were shipped 23 days ago I thought that they were all dead but then all of a sudden, when I got back from arkansas, they started to hatch! Three hatched, one had to be put down, and this one is the last one to hatch (I have one more in there but I think it quit)

Still peeping, but no cracks

 

[GoldenChooks]

have you candled them?

Yes but since they have no air sac they take up the whole space and the eggs are completely dark

Wait so are you saying no quail eggs have air cells?

 

[GoldenChooks]

So you are just waiting on this one to come out still?

Yes unless the other egg is still alive

Is this normal?
Or Ok?

It's ok mine have done it and are fine, it certainly isn't normal for them to have to hatch without an airsac it's stressful
