So 10 days ago I set my coturnix eggs in my incubator, candled them today and all but 1 is fertile, but then I was looking at them and realize "oh >]%+" I incubated them pointy end up, what do I do please have pity on me and don't $&/: on me, just your local neighborhood idiot trying to hatch a small clutch of eggs please help please
 
Flip them immediately would be my advice (I'm still very novice myself....so take my advice with that waring.) They may still have time to rotate enough in the shell that it wont be an issue. Worse case, what I'm reading is that hatchability drops 12-30 percent. (This is for chicken eggs....so quail may vary.)
 
Your hatch rate will definitely suffer.
Put them on their side. And turn them 3 times a day until day 14th.
