Day 6 Button Quail Candle Pics... Any of them alive?

[007Sean]

I've seen the mating in the past, maybe their mating season is over or mayeb it's because I changed their cage... I might just end up buying eggs online

Changing their cage will definitely 'throw them off' for awhile, until they become familiar with their new surroundings.

hello beautiful chicken people,
this is my third attempt at incubating button quail eggs. this time I tried a dry hatch because I hear it's more reliable. today's day 6, I candled the eggs and they're not looking great. are any of them developing? a couple of them have wheels so thick you can't really see... thanks Mrs hen. if not what could I be doing wrong?

thanks

I would wait until day 9 or 10 to candle them from what i have researched. I am new to button quail as well mine are only on day 2 in the bater. I've read so much before i started.

As was pointed out to me on a post I replied to yesterday, the one you replied to here is over a year old. That's better than mine which was 12 years old, I think.
