Quail incubating

[Brentleymama]

Our quail started hatching mid afternoon yesterday. We still have eggs peeping. I know I need to remove the quail 24hours after hatching. What do I do if I still have eggs peeping? Can I open it and remove the 3 quail from yesterday real quick and just spray the remaining with water even with them peeping? I’m not sure if I should leave the current but it would be over the 24hours?

I was just going to ask the same thing…
I’m have a slow hatch and don’t want to shrink wrap any potential birds.

You can take the chicks out, but be quick about it.

If you have a bathroom and shower somewhat close to your incubator I’ve heard that you can unplug your incubator and take it to the shower with the water on very hot and steamy to open it. I’ve never tried this, but where I live it is usually hot and humid enough in my four seasons room to where this isn’t a problem for me. I would definitely try it though if it was!
