Hi
I’m very new to this but we have a single quail egg which my daughter inherited (?) and because I had a access to an incubator I let her try and hatch it.
This evening at 7 will be day 19 (assuming day 0 when it went in)
Yesterday morning she candled it without moving it (not that it should be disturbed during lockdown but she needed to add water)And realised it was pipped internally!
The egg hasn’t moved or made a sound.
I’m thinking it’s probably dead...we knew nothing about humidity levels when we started and no way of knowing what they were for the first week but since then we had them at about 50% and now at about 68%
She wants to make a hole is she right?
How long can a quail chick live in the air sac?
Thanks
