Ok.. Here's the low down.. I'm a beginner at candling... So don't go harassing me about this.. About 4 days ago give or take I candled my coturnix quail eggs. Thought I saw some clears, about 8. Put them next to the bator, walked away. Asked DH to throw them away. Well he has been turning the bator, and when I went in and saw them there I about threw a fit. Then I saw something that threw me for a loop...... THEY WERE ROCKING!!!
Not wiggling.. Rocking...
So I hurriedly grabbed them, closed the door, and turned the lights off... Candled them again.. Sniffed them.. Watched for them to move again.. Only 1 smelled odd. Tuesday is hatch day.. So we are in lockdown.. Placed these odd ones in the hatcher, and I am waiting to see what, if anything, happens.
