Ok, got home tonight and, of course, I had to feed and water everything and I was just about to go help out the three quail that were left(I had checked on them and seen they hadn't hatched yet). When I finally got to the bator, the three had just started to ZIP!!!EVen BETTER, I heard cracking on the other side of the bator and 3 or 4 on that side are pipping too!! I will let you know the count when they get done!

It must be the weather, earlier this summer everyone's eggs were popping one after another, now they seem to be dragging it out

Come on babies!!

That was quick, wasn't it?

This is what just hatched: 2 reddish colored ones, 2 golden, 3 A&Ms and a tuxedo. So far that makes 17.

And how many eggs did I send?? The reddish ones are either cinnamons or red-goldens, if they look like the normal browns but redder, they are cinnamons. If they look like tibetans only redder, they are red-goldens

I am not sure what tibetans are but one is darker than the other. I am still waiting for them to dry and make sure no others are going to pop out and then I will get a picture if I can.

You sent 28 eggs. This is a darn good hatch!

The tibetans are the 'dark range', the darker color that is on tuxedos is tibetan. Not the baby tuxedos, cause they are most likely black and white, but the older ones.

I see one more in the bator trying to hatch and noticed that one in the brooder that I thought was a tuxedo, isn't. It has reddish and black markings on it. I'll take a picture.

Ok, the last one was another reddish colored one. The last one that I see pipped anyway, lol. Trust me, I am not taking any eggs out yet.

I took more pictures, hold on, and I'll get them loaded.
