Oh good! I was afraid that if any make it that far that they might die, if it is an early pipper.

Lockdown time is better judged by air cells, in my opinion. A little early, a little late, its flexible. When are you leaving?

Leaving 6:30 pm, and getting back at 9ish. I set at 8:09 pm, if that matters... I didn't want to lockdown early as I'd like to be around for a while to watch temps.

Yea, a little late shouldn't hurt a thing.

Here's a little quail video for you, if this works lol

I won't mention how filling the bottom with rocks produces the same effect, because it might destroy your scant sanity....

I won't mention how filling the bottom with rocks produces the same effect..... Cuz I like that logic.

But not at egg level..............
