Cotornix Quail second hatch failing miserably

They can take upwards of 24hrs to zip after piping.

Thankyou!

Thankyou!

I now have 2 pipped in the right place. Time for bed lol. Its been a long day/night.

My pipped eggs have come no further, although two eggs still wobbling.... I'm not sure what to do here. Do I help tomorrow? I think they're probably just going to die.

This is going to sound awful but I know they won't go to waste. Too many raptor birds of Prey around here. Scared this guy off the Quails day coup yesterday. Its not a good photo but he was magnificent. Sleek silver grey with a black face and yellow eyes that just glowed.

If only this one survives I'll be so happy. He was furiously trying to saw through the membrane that was far too tough. The other pip is clearly shrink wrapped, but he's twittering. I've peeled back some of the membrane but he was bleeding so I'm gonna leave him for the next few hours at least til the vessels shrink.
His or her name is lucky lol
