Quail eggs went sticky in incubator!

[563879]

Hello all,
I'm incubating quail eggs along with some australorp and Plymouth rocks. The quail eggs are at about day 12 and 1 is crack slightly around the centre and they're all gone slightly sticky overnight. The temp rose to 102, not sure why..so i back that off.
Would the temperature rising be too much for them or what?
Thanks

@MGG would you know?
Your knowledge of incubation is far superior to my own.

It's a little high. I'm not entirely sure what you're asking though.

If your eggs stink or Ouz out at day 12 my guess would be bad eggs. Tough to tell for sure

Sorry, do you know whyy the dark part of the quail shells would have gone sticky?

They're all sticky? What is your humidity at and is your hydrometer salt tested? I would guess either too high humidity or bad eggs. So the quail eggs are sticky and the chicken ones aren't? Can you candke some of the stickiest ones and post pics?

I don't have a hydrometer. My incubator is a hova-bator. Can you candle quail eggs?
Correct, the chicken eggs aren't sticky.
Thanks

Oh better get one. I bet your humidity is messed up somehow or something. Of course. They're pretty easy to candle.
