FINALLY!

i just looked in the bator and i see one egg that has pip.. it's a small pip but i can see the chick pushing the tiny piece of shell up

 

[BirdBoy88]

More pips!!

plus i have one that is zipping!

LOL! you will never guess what i did though to start this

i got so sick of waiting so i was sitting here thinking..then i thought ( well maybe if they here other baby coturnix hatching then they will start pipping )

so i went on Youtube and found a video of baby coturnix chicks hatching and took my ear phones place it on top of the bator..set the volume high enough so that i can here it about 2 feet away i knew then the sound would go through the bator...

and about 5 minutes after i started the video an kept replying it... my eggs are now pipping LOL
