Or perhaps just reassurance
I am on days 10 & 3 of a split hatch of both coturnix and CBBQ -- my own eggs
I have misplaced the handy dandy little cheat sheet that QuailLady sent with her eggs. I seem to remember that:
1] the humidity needs to be higher - 65* - 70* during incubation and 70* - 75* during hatch??
2] chicks should be removed to brooder [ 95* - 100*] with drown-proofed water & food as soon as dry to prevent dehydration/starvation as they don't have the 2-3 day 'reserves' from the yolk sac that chickens have
3] clutches a week or more apart in age should be given separate brooders
Anything else I need to know?
