Enjoy it

Oh I will!
 
Here is what happend. I put the top on and the light came on saying the top was on after I turned and candled some to see what the air sacks looked like. I came back 3 hours later to turn the ones without a detached air cell and it said the top was off and stopped putting warm air into the incubator to "save" electricity, the incubator and the eggs were freezing. Today I water candled the one which I may have saw movement in, nothing. I am still giving them a chance, but they were so far into the incubation I don't think so.

That's not good. On our first hatch, we didn't get the humidity and temperature right nor did we turn the eggs! And we had one chick hatch! Don't lose hope, I'm sure some will hatch!

Wow! I am thinking the embryo may have "hibernated" and was getting out of it.
That is true, my quail I have now hatched from a egg that was sitting in a cold garage for 4 weeks! That is what the person who gave us the eggs said.

Yeah, you are probably right.
