I'm Probably Gonna Need My Hand Held Quail Hatch-A-Long

I gave up candling after the first couple. Very hard to see the air cell with the mottling on the shell. Or the eggs were scrambled and the air cell had gone walk about.

Plus using the incubator’s candling light, the room itself is too bright and no way to make it dimmer. Tried the led flashlight and it was hard to get good light transfer to the egg. So I started only doing visual checks for cracks.

I’ll try candling again in a few days when the light I ordered gets here.

#32 - hairline crack, not loaded
#78 - large crack, not loaded

And I doubled up numbers somewhere because I only got up to 95…oops.

I cracked open the cracked eggs and it looks like the boys are doing their job?

Everyone is loaded in and we are a go.
That is an impressive number of eggs for a first hatch. It's nice to see the boys are doing their jobs, lol.

When I candle during the day I take my eggs to the bathroom since it's the only room in the house with no windows. 🫣

@Sefirothe do you like the Hunger Games? It’s sort of sci-fi and would have a lot of good names.
Yes! I read the books and watched the movies. Enjoyed both.

I’m pretty open to anything sci-fi or fantasy related. Books, tv, movies, video games.
