Ordered some button quail hatching eggs from Purely Poultry. Ordered 12 and they sent 20 which was awesome! Couldn’t candle them they were so small. It’s now day 24 and closing down the incubator. Sadly only 7 hatched out of 20 and 1 died. I had to help 4 of them out of their eggs (after the time amount of being stuck I read about). So that makes me wonder, are buttons just a struggle to hatch normally? Do they normally struggle to get out of eggs? This is my second even hatching my first being Conturix and had a great hatch rate.
