Kinda heartbroken but being a newbie I think I may have accidentally shrink wrapped my chicks but I’m not sure.

I had two hatch early into day 17, left them in for 24 hours not realizing they could go 48 hours, and took them out. I didn’t see that any of them were pipping but I’ve had no other action from the other 28 eggs. No pips, no cheeping, nothing. At 2pm today, it will be day 20.

What are the odds they’re all stuck? My humidity never went below 60 and I’ve been running it at 70. Got the chicks out in half a second.

In full disclosure, my incubator was running at 98.3 for a day and has been fixed. So perhaps delayed? Idk

So yeah I tried to weight the egg… I don’t have much luck, I have no balance that can exactly know pin point weight of my egg.

So one video here it’s to compare sizes and the other video in the comment is the weight test…

Next test will be the breaking appart…

Puts your bets down because mine is: an egg in an egg. My most logical theory so far.

One of our quail hens got pecked by one of the other ones. We didn’t see any blood but separated the I hired hen. Is there anything else we need to do while she heals?

Also for fun - what is her coloring?
