Quail eggs die on lockdown

[mashal]

Please help me
This is my second batch, and for the second time i find my coturnix quail chicks dead in their shells, it looks like they died during lockdown period with correct temperature and humidity.
Could it be that i dont have a fan in my hova bator 1612 incubator or what ????
Please advice me i am depressed its the 2nd time....

Welcome to BYC, good luck with your hatch.

Welcome to BYC. I have absolutely no experience with quail. Have you tried posting in the 'Quail' section of the "Other backyard poultry" forum?

Maybe you would do better with day olds instead of hatching eggs.

From what I have read It seems like they might have drowned. I recently found quite a few articles on "dry" incubation. A lot of people are using no water before the lockdown period. I'm VERY new to this and have my first dozen eggs in a diy incubator but it's definitely worth checking into.
