I will have to get pictures later, but one of my quail babies hatched today. I had given up on them yesterday and while cracking the eggs to see when and how I lost them, I found one was still alive and pretty close to hatching. I put that poor baby and the remaining 3 eggs back into the bator and one hatched this afternoon. The poor little one I opened did not make it as I expected, but I had to try. I am hoping to find one or both of the others hatched by morning.

So my final count 10/15. The 5 cracked eggs did not make it. The little one that got dropped on his/her head, is doing good. May call him/her Humpty Dumpty. lol I am greatfull for my hatched babies.

Goodnite all.
 
OH MY!! I had 7 eggs left to hatch. Lockdown was Thursday the 9th. Started pipping the 10th and hatched the 11th, 12th, 13th. Had the 7 left, so I let the bator run still. No pips or hatching yesterday the 14th. I turned off the bator this morning at 9:15 am, a few min later I HEARD PEEPING. Oh my, plugged the bator back in and I have another pip. What are the chances of that? All these eggs were set at the same time and were all developing the same, but I have some late bloomers.

My broody still has 2 more to go too. 1 hatched yesterday, the other 2 have not pipped yet, but she is still sitting on them.

This has been a weird hatch for me! Must be something in the air.

I think those 3 are my only December chicks from THIS hatch; the 4th didn't make it out of the egg. (Rest of the eggs aren't doing a darned thing, either.) Ah well, I am always happy if anything hatches at all. Nice to have more than one!
