So, I'm incubating my first clutch of coturnix quail and it hasn't been smooth, honestly. We've had a few heat spikes and our home doesn't have A/C and then the incubator was accidentally unplugged for a few hours, though the house was still fairly hot, around 27-28 degrees. I was prepared to have none of these eggs hatch but now I'm kind of in a worse situation.
One has hatched, but it's almost 24 hours later and none of the others have even started to pip. When I put them into lockdown, the ones I could see through the shell of looked good, but I'm worried because there was another heat spike during the first day of lockdown where it got up to around 38. How likely are any of the other eggs to hatch? I don't want the baby that did hatch to be alone.
OH. It's been a handful in the past few days! Out of 24 eggs, ten hatched which I think is pretty good considering that they were shipped eggs and all the trouble I had with incubation.
How long from the first hatch the the rest of them hatching ? I’m in the exact same situation as you were, except it’s almost been 48hrs since the first hatch and I don’t see pipping, it’s day 18
Sorry for the lost one runts some times don't make it but I always give them the best chance I would so keep the first one the last one and 3rd from last 
no idea of the morphs but I love how they look
