all who are hatching quail

I think I waited too long. One wing looks deformed and it's feet are curled in. Not sure it's going to make it. It looks very week.

Its nothing you did wrong, it sounds like its deformed and was having a hard time getting out. Hope it pulls through and ends up being OK.

Do you have any poultry vitamins you could try? That helps a lot. The feet can be taped usually, not sure about a wing though. Sometimes if they get glued to the shell it takes awhile to look like they should.

I've got chic vitamins that I'm using to help them all get started. Hopefully it pulls through. If it does my daughter wants to keep it as a pet.

I'm trying to hatch my first 16. They were due to hatch on tuesday, 3 hatched. 1 pipped but didn't hatch, the next day 2 more pipped but only one hatched. Now I have one that pipped almost 48 hours ago and 1 almost 24 hours ago. Is this okay or should I do something. My humidity was around 55 so I increased it to 70 hoping that would help.

crack egg around and see if it will climb out but be careful that you dont take it out to quick.

I raise coturnix and is hard decided who gets butchered. they taste great though, especially smoked. I should be getting 24++ A&M eggs today or tomorrow to hatch and I have 100 eggs from my birds that someone else is hatching out for me. I am super excited to see what they look like since I have multiple color patterns in the same pen.

This incubation is going much better! hardly any temperature fluctuation like the last batch.....When I set them there were seven that were cracked internally, so with your eggs and mine combined it left us with 103 eggs incubating total..... I candled the other night and it was 76% fertility, I will re candle when I set them for lock down to see if the number changes at all. but all in all it is going smoothly!

Will you be selling any of the A&M's?

What are special about A&M's? Just curious, I am learning.

They are big meat and egg producers....and they are a pretty white color
