Awww YAY puppies & chickies!!!!! congrats!!! I did the same thing!!!!!! My first hatcher - (my lone quail so far) I was taking the next set of eggs out to put in lockdown & noticed the quail egg w/ out a date on it so I put it to my ear & all I could hear was rapid fire pecking!! Put it in the lockdown bator & in no time there it was!
 
Hi everyone,

Congratulations on all your successful hatches.

Update: Candled my eggs again late last night (day 14) and definitely have movement in 6 eggs. Yaay!!!!!!!!! Took out 4 clears. Think I may have one quitter but decided to leave it in until lock down at least, just in case. The 'dark' blob is about half the size of the others, couldn't see any veining at all and no movement. Pretty sure this one is a gonner but want to be careful as this is my first time hatching.

So, out of the original 12 eggs put into the bator, I'm left with 6 live chicks on day 14.......ohhh.....hatch day can't come soon enough for me now!

All the air sacs SEEM to be the right size....maybe a teeny bit smaller. If they are a tiny bit smaller will this matter much? My humidity level is around 30-35, but there is a LOT of variance downwards during the day. Mostly overnight the humidity hits a low of 10%. I'm thinking this 10-35% range is ok for the first 18 days? Can someone please just confirm this for me.

Many thanks friends.
