Dented egg day 17

[Ponypoor]

Since someone suggested a name inspired by music, here's my thoughts:
"(Blue) Moon", by the Marcels
"(Blue) Bayou", by Linda Ronstadt
"(Blue)" Velvet, by Lana Del Rey
Willie - (Nelson) for "Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain"
Bobby or Bobbie - for Bobby Vinton's "Blue on Blue"

And this one, just random:
Chip (as in Blue Chip Stock)

And now I have the song Blue Moon stuck in my head

Chip is really cute - Chippy for a nickname

I was doing my last turn over before lockdown, and dented one of the eggs pretty good. Nothing is leaking out. Should I leave it in there? I feel awful

What did you end up doing and what were the results? I’d like to know in case I ever have the same mishap.

I feel like the chick would’ve survived. It was still moving that night when I candled it, even though it was badly cracked. The problem I ran in to, was the incubator I had, had bad ventilation. The remaining chicks weren’t able to pip, and died in the air cell

We use the little giant delux. It is old school, and deceiving in terms of how nice the more "modern" models look. But we have really good hatch rates with it, about 15 to 20% better than the nurture right 360. What i like most about it is how well it holds temp and humidity.

It is also bigger and more roomy for the newly hatched babies.

But yes, no matter what, buy a seperate temp/hygrometer. Im
Linking what I have. I love this one because it is affordable, and has an app. The app has an alarm feature that you can be notified if something goes below where you want it. Perfect for incubating (also has a 15% coupon right now!)

My friend and I both ordered this hygrometer! I can’t wait to try it out!

My husband ordered me the Nuture Right 360 from Manna Pro. I just set some eggs! My new humidity gauge should be here tomorrow

You will absolutely not be sorry.

I was just watching another video where some more prominent quail folks were talking about incubation and they both concurred that at the least, this unit is what they will use to calibrate the incubator.
