Detailed incubation records

I found the paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5824995/

Wow I love that it has all the hatching information and guides and stuff!! That is so cool!!! Seems very useful. Although I thought quail were 18 days? It says 17?

The default setting takes day 0 as day 1, so maybe that is compensating for it? Took me a bit to figure out that I need to edit the start date. Otherwise, everything is ahead by a day.

Ahh that makes sense then. Seems interesting. I looked it up though and I can’t find it in the App Store? Is it only android?

Yeah, I think so. It's from Australia.

I'll have to try using the app next time I hatch eggs.

I'm setting eggs today.

I want to know what everyone keeps track of during incubation...besides the 'regular' temperature and humidity levels.


I plan to label each egg and keep track of fertility and quitters but what else can I chart?

absolutely nothing except for a projected hatch date. I just stick them under a broody and what happens happens

I thought that the paper about using spectroscopy to sex chicks while they're still in the egg was interesting.

I'm still reading it, but I like it! The only research paper of this length that I actually want to read.

I finished reading it last night. I don't know much about spectroscopy in general, but I liked the paper.
