Lopsided air cell

[Babyquail]

Day 25 and I just put duckling in lockdown. Last survivor of a 5 egg clutch and the odds don’t look to be in his favor, he’s quite spunky and still alive, but CAN he even hatch with a lopsided air cell such as this?

He should hatch fine. Will you be getting him some siblings when he hatches?

That’s a relief, and yes I already have some lined up for as soon as he hatches!

I will say that the air cell seems to be a bit on the larger side. What is your humidity at?

A stable 55, sometimes a bit higher

Sounds good. Make sure to bump the humidity up to the 60s for lockdown!

Please let me know how the hatch goes!

I’m having a time currently as I can’t seem to get the humidity down from 70, but the egg has completely changed direction, little duckling has spunk
