Hey guys
Need some suggestions
How long will you leave the quail eggs in the incubator ?
I'm on day 17, three quails hatched between 15-16 but nothing else now
I have chicken eggs in there too
So I'm wondering if I should leave the unhatched quail eggs in till the end or take them out when chicken goes in for lockdown which is tomorrow
I don't know what is happening there as I can't see the inside when candling...

Thank you

Can you see anything when you candle? If you can't see anything, I would leave it in there for another couple days.

I can't really see anything when I candled. I think my light is too big for the quail and I cant get the lights to focus on the egg. Too much leak through my hand...

I have two that I see little cracks that I'm gonna take out in a couple of days but I'm wondering if I should leave the rest in till chickens are hatched
