That's right, I had 2 more button quail hatch last night! These are still coming from the eggs my broody girl had! 9 more eggs to go, then the ones in the bator are due (10 more). What in the world am I going to do with all these babies??

I have had 2 more buttons hatch (at last count). So this brings the current total to 16 live babies, 2 deceased babies, and 4 eggs to go!! They have 3-4 more days before I toss them, cause that's when the others in the bator are due (I think), so they had better hurry up!

Apparently I've lost count somewhere. I have 6 eggs left in the bator, there were 22 taken from the nest. So 6 eggs+2 dead chicks+2 in the hatcher=10. So that means there should be 12 in the brooder?? Idk where I messed up! But there should be 14 babies, instead of 16. Got a bit ahead of myself somewhere. Guess I need to go do a head-count!

There are 4 more eggs in the hatcher, with 10 more in the bator due on Friday. I don't have any idea what I'm going to do with all these buttons!!
