Im sorry

are you like me finishing up the last of your hatches before winter sets in?​

 

[PollyC]

the eggs sent to Maine are doing great. It looks like all are developing right on schedule. My candling skills are not perfect but I didn't see any blood rings so I think that is good.

 

[BHep]

The eggs I got............ ZERO development, this is a 1st for me.

They are scrambled.
Good luck everyone...........

Yes, but I will probably still be setting more eggs after the current eggs in my incubators hatch.

Of the two button quail eggs that developed one is hatched - unfortunately with a little intervention from me. He had zipped half way as of yesterday evening and was still in the same spot this morning so I peeled him out like a hard boiled egg. This is the tinist bird I have ever seen - my husband was also amazed. I have the feeling the other one got stuck before it even pipped. My humidity had dropped yesterday to 22%. I will help them if it is obvious they are stuck but I won't help a chick that hasn't at least pipped externally on its own. If the other one doesn't hatch will this guy be OK as a singleton?

His down is blue/gray and yellow.

I had one hatch by itself and it peeped incessantly and ran itself to death. I have since discovered that you can put a sock rolled up or a small stuffed toy in for a surrogate buddy. Or just keep it in your pocket
