Quail hatching!

[becky3086]

My incubators are in my closet and so is my brooder. I didn't think it was anywhere near time for anything to hatch but those 18 days for quail go so fast. Normally, I don't turn the light on in the closet when I go to turn the eggs, because I can see with the booder light. Anyway, I opened the incubator and the one baby quail that had hatched scared the heck out of me. I thought it was a big bug! lol. Anyway, I see several more pipped.
This batch was just thrown in the incubator because I didn't get them sold. Can't wait to see what colors I get this time. The first one looks like a regular jumbo.

I have 4 babies now. I have never had them hatch like this, one then later another, then over night, then 2 more, lol. Normally they hatch fairly close together. So far no goldens or whites, just the regular quail.
I'll take picture in a little while.
