Anymore progress?

Not yet. A few beaks peaking through occasionally but nothing to report.

Well that’s good . Once they’re to that stage they usually come out within the next hour

Good to know! This is our first quail hatch. We've hatched chickens and ducks before. And LOTS of baby geckos.

Hope the hatching is going well!

Geckos? Those are so cute! Next time you want hatching eggs, let me know unless you're particularly attached to Alchemy. I'm not too far from Alchemy and might even be a slightly shorter drive for you. I charge less for my eggs.

5 hatched! One with the shell open and trying to roll out..can't really tell what's going on with the rest since they've been rolled all over.
