    Incubating quail egg in bra (and it's working?)

    Hey everyone! About 9 days ago I received a bunch of mixed hatching quail eggs. One was significantly smaller then the others and I doubted it was even fertile. Then I remembered seeing a tiktok once of a girl growing an egg in her bra, so I thought "why not?". Flashforward 9 days, and my little...

    Bra incubation

    Hi everyone I want to document my bra incubation with bantam hatching eggs. I do have a question I have an egg it’s about day 8 and the chick is moving around a lot and has healthy thick blood vessels and growing really fast. Seems like it doubles in size every time I candle it. I candles it...

    Hatching a quail egg in my bra

    So this is crazy, but I've seen on here that it can work, so here goes nothing. My incubator has been a little inconsistent the first day of having eggs in it. My infrared thermometer read egg temperatures ranging from 98 to 102.2 degrees F, and I have more eggs coming in a few days. So...
