my quail are piping!!!

[S n M Poultry]

my courtnix quail eggs i got from Bitty girl are piping. I have 1 question though. One egg has been the same way since this morning. I was wondering if i should help it? thanks.

the general opinion on helping is don't but I would go on your feeling , I had one die that had pipped and stared to zip I left for too long before I helped it was too late it was already dead

. If it has pipped and started zipping and then stopped I would help it. If it has just pipped and nothing else I would leave it a little bit longer.

i would put a wet paper towlel in your bator to raise the humidity a little higher
but congrats i am having a hatch on the 17th
how many eggs are you supposed to be hatching
i have 120

wow how exciting. Good luck. I have quail in the bator right now that I got from Mothergoose. First time for me so it should be fun when hatching day arrives.

Just see what it does. Do you think it's still alive though?

Ok i think i helped it to much. It is still alive but it looks like it cant hold up its head on its own. Is there anything i can do for it?

swiftfoot im only hatching 3, lol
