Here are some pictures of the 7 quail chicks that have hatched today. There are 2 more eggs pipping as I type this, which would make 9/12 so far.
The incubator was getting very cramped, with chicks and empty egg shell. So late in the day, the first 6 fully dry chicks went into the brooder. The chicks in the brooder are doing fine, all are eating and most are drinking. The advantage of the small incubator, was that the temperature and humidity recovered in minutes after being opened.
You will see in the pictures, there is a wide variety of colours. One of the chicks is very light, almost a blonde colour.
Regards Bob
