i have no quail egg hatching trays

alright fellow BYCers. i've got a small problem and a solution. just thought i'd ask and see what everyone thought about it. i raise lots of ducks, i mean lots and some guineas and chickens. i have successfully hatched, ducks, geese, chickens, bantams, guineas, and turkeys. no prob. i have never hatched pheasants, chukars, or quail. i understand that the process is almost identical but, i don't have any quail egg trays. i have all 30 of the eggs in a standard chicken egg tray and used a cottonball in each to keep the egg from rolling around in my dickie incubator. do you think this will work? the only thing that raises concern is, will the egg still get the air it needs with the cottonball touching it on one side. they are bobwhite eggs i am hatching for a friend. i am going to get several breeds next spring and will have hatching trays soon. do you think this will work for right now?
