Day 6: the disaster begins! Pulled 5 eggs from the shipped lot (8 left). 2 looked infertile and 2 were sloshy/clumpy and I also had a blood ring. Opened them and had only 1 infertile, others day 2-4 quitters. I’m impressed with the fertility if not the post office. Only 1/13 infertile. Looking back at my previous scrambled hatch I had 25% each for infertile, early quitters (up to day 9), late quitters (day 10 to hatch), and live chicks. I have 7 home eggs developing just fine too. I’m guessing 4 shipped chicks and 6 home chicks for a total of 10, which is a nice size hatch for my set up, also want a hen and a rooster out of the ginger batch, if I only wanted one I’d get the other but this way I won’t be disappointed unless nothing hatches! But don’t worry, Murphy’s law is still with us, my one good air cell egg was infertile!
here's hoping for a nice pair (or more!) of gingers!No kidding Murphy's law, of course the one good air cell is infertile.
No more quitters little quail!
