So I figured out this morning I had a hole in the run where I keep my quail. I'm estimating that I lost about 8 or so.

@mixedUPturk You're doing a great job! I'm in the same boat with you. Working on an assist. This little guy is such a loud mouth! I can hear him peeping from across the room. Makes me nervous, hearing him cry. He was banging his beak against the external hole I made for 2 hours with no progress. I made the hole a little bigger. I see a little bit of blood, so I upped my humidity and am just waiting! Hopefully he doesn't get to stressed and hangs in for awhile till he's ready.

Im so sorry for both you guys! Were still where i left em this AM...

And thank you WV and Ruby really im tryn so hard to be patient for them but its hard!

I would like to make sure I have something correct. There's a theory about sexing by egg shape. It's rounder=female and pointy=male? EMPHASIS on EGG shape, lol.

Our resident lazy gardener has a theory and has been testing for some time. Others call it a myth. But check out her thread.. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/958517/nutrition-and-gender-and-inducing-broodiness

Thanks folks! 9 on the ground this morning and I could not see any more pips, but my window is on the side, so I'm not sure. I will grab some pics tonight. Interesting to see the 6 solid yellow so far and 3 Marans looking chicks from this Marans x Leghorn/EE mix.

Great news! Hope you get a bunch more!

So sorry CaseyV, you are having a dreadful morning today. Did you sell your lav orps?

Thanks everyone!

I did sell them the day before I left for Ohio. I'm hoping @RavynFallen can send me a few eggs to hatch.
