I have button quail and cot quail zipping like popcorn in there!!! Wow! They really go once they get started.

I hope you post pics of your tiny quail after hatch. Quail are just the cutest!

I can now say I have 9 healthy babies! Yay!
Five out of the seven in the incubator, and Goldie-momma hatched four of her six.

They are all with Goldie-momma now and doing great. She is an amazing momma!
The only problem now, is that I can't get a single thing done because I'm too busy watching Momma and Babies!
That, and now I need more eggs!
Why didn't anyone tell me how addicting this is?!

I bought a digital thermometer/ hygrometer from Home Depot for $10 to put inside mine.
My LG was all over the place before lockdown because there was little to no water in it. At lock down after I added the water to the chambers the humidity stayed steady and was fairly dead on with the hygrometer. I think w/o water in it it is VERY temperamental.

Thank you! I have two chambers half full right now and it's averaging 42 humidity
