I have first three quails hatched between early day 15 to early day 16 but now it seems to be really quiet and nothing has happened

I'm wondering if that will be my only hatches or will there be more as I read they usually all pop out like popcorns lol. I know it's still early, since I can't really see the inside when candled I don't know how many I'm expecting

Just a little impatient lol

Thank you

Beginning of the day 17. Just had another one hatched. I left her in the incubator to dry off hopefully she will encourage more to come out if there are more
hopefully!! If you have nothing by end of day 18, I'd give the remaining eggs a quick candle to see how many you're waiting on.
Are you brooding the chicks the same room as youre incubating the eggs? I ask because, sometimes it helps for the unhatched chicks to hear the chirps, it can encourage them to hatch. Sometimes playing a video of chicks chirping next to the incubator can help.
