King Quail! (Button Quail) I was offered a bunch of eggs at an auction for free and couldn't turn them down

I wouldn't be able to either.

Entry 2: taken just moments after entry 1 (this entry is a screen shot from a video, though, so not sure it qualifies). I couldn't decide which one to choose! It was my first time hatching eggs (which were from my own flock) so we were very excited. 3 out of 5 made it. The other two died during pip because they didn't quite make it to the air bubble - they were just a hair away and I didn't know until after it was too late of the 3 that made it I still have one - Debbie - and she lays the prettiest eggs

I know this is the Pip and Zip contest, but since you said it was your very first duck egg, I'd love to know that it hatched!
