Quail hatch. Follow along.

Update! So another egg has just pipped. There are 2 others that are moving around. Hopefully one will start to hatch out later today.

Another update lol. I put a light up to the incubator to look for more pips and to my shock every single one of them is pipped except 3 of them

Your incubator is running a little high! That's the reason for the early pip's....but Congratulations!

Thank you! I think you are correct it may have been high I kept it at 98.5 to 100.5 throughout the incubation process

Today is day 23. Sorry I'm posting early lol. I think 2 more eggs have pipped alot of them are moving the egg back and forth. No zips yet but maybe later today or tomorrow. I will send a picture when first one hatches

 

[Mallards and Quail]

Update. No hatches or zips yet so I'm starting to get worried but I hear chirping. I'm nervous because the day they pipped I didn't notice and opened the incubator to take out a bad egg, I only opened it for 30 seconds though. Humidity only went down to 35% for like 2 minutes are they shrink wrapped? If so when should I step in? Or am I overthinking it and it just takes time to hatch? Also, when should I start turning the eggs again? Its about to be 48 hours without turning

Today is day 24. No hatches just movement and chirping. Shoukd I step in? I'm worried.

Patience, patience, patience!!!! No they are not shrink wrapped. Sometimes it takes Gambles, Valleys and Mountain quail a little longer to hatch,...day 25 or even 26.
What is the %Rh, right now?

How is your humidity it might be too low or it might not be getting around to all the eggs. Low humidity can stop them from hatching or opening up the lid and shrink wrapping the chicks in the eggs. Or it might be too high. Hope they hatch soon

It is at 55 percent. I'm worried about all the other eggs not turning thoug&
