Just got my button quail eggs in today.
Only have 11 though, had to throw one out because of how badly it was cracked.

I went to check on one of my eggs today, that I have to keep a close eye on. And it felt hot, and so did a bunch of other eggs.
Like the temps were normal in the incubator, but the eggs just felt so warm.
And candling just became really hard, since the eggs seemed to have become darker on the inside.
Is this normal?
Like I saw in one of the hot eggs, the chick was still just dancin around inside the egg. But I still have concerns.

They do seem to get warmer as time goes on. They are generating their own heat. (I think?) Mine seem warmer then a couple days ago. Heavier, too. Can they gain weight?

I'm hatching on the 24th as well. Plus, my 6 year old daughter's birthday is the 23rd. She's hoping for an early hatch.

My Birthday is the 26th.

Lucky, I want some of those.
though if I hatched them, I would have to sell them.
Since that is all I can do when living on residential.
My friends will only hold so many chickens for me hahah
Especially since they aren't charging me....
