INCUBATING QUAIL EGGS

[grubbypaws]

My quail eggs are at day 24 last night i noticed two with small cracks 19 hours later the cracks have not increased in size and no others have appeared. Should i be concerned

Are they coturnix or another type? I know bobwhite and some other quail take up to 23 days and I've read people get a hatch as late as 28 days :\

My coturnix are on day 19 today and not even a pip. I swear I saw some rocking but no such luck anymore. I candled before lockdown and I know they're developed. I did a float test and they're all viable!

Have you tried a float test yet?

I wouldn't float test the ones with cracks in them. But you could set them on a flat surface and see if they move.

Oh I know about the not float testing cracked ones lol I triple checked my eggs before I did!
