| Post subject: | Quail |
Well I have a small flock of white and brown cortunix quail. For some reason they started laying eggs in the middle of winter. Anyway I put a couple dozen quail as well as 3 dozen chicken eggs in the incubator on Dec. 20th and got my first white hatchling this evening. Not real confident on my success rate being the cold temps I collected them in. I candled the chicken eggs and of the 37 eggs 7 weren't fertile. I have had only about 50% success with quail. I will know for sure in the next two days. Chickens should hatch in 4-5 more days. Quail take 17-18 days chickens take 21-22 days. |

I got some japanese quail from Faye not too long ago and they seemed to thrive on veggie layer crumble from the feed store. Confession time Faye, two crows managed to get into my quail pen last week and they killed and ate the lot

Doh! Don't you worry Simo, that is the thing about nature. Your confession is acknowledge and you are free to not worry any longer. Maybe we need a confession thread on this site too.

Hey Simo I just saw your confession. Never mind, I learnt a while ago that there are no strings attached when animals are concerned. |
