Finally decided to join after lurking for a couple of years as I can't find an answer to my question this time.
Firstly, a big thank you to the BYC community for all the knowledge and helped I've got over the last couple of years while hatching chickens and quail.
I currently have 56 coturnix quail in the incubator. They went into lockdown Monday night and are due to start hatching tomorrow, day 16. Have hatched quail quite a few times now with the last batch a month ago mostly hatching on day 16, couple day 15 and couple day 17. Have had them hatch as late as day 20 in previous batches though.
Anyway, since lockdown we have only seen 6 out of 56 eggs wobble which I find very unusual. We usually see a lot more action that that so I'm wondering if anyone else has seen very little movement but still had a good hatch rate???
