    What color genetics do you think this yearling peacock has? He is from a farm that has 25-30 free range peafowl and they have no idea the genetics of them.

    all who are hatching quail

    Moved 80 XLD cortunix from hatcher to brooder last night. Left 3 in hatcher that were not dried yet. This morning had another 15 in the hatcher. Having a good hatch. It will still take me a couple of more weekly hatches to catch up on chick orders.

    This is just not a good year!! Sorry for your losses. The whole reason I bought the hatcher was to not have to constantly adjust the humidity when hatching in my incubator. Last year I though my air cells were not getting big enough due to high humidity during the weekly lockdown stage in the...

    My to my two Peachicks are doing well. Next group goes into lockdown tomorrow. Candled them a few days ago and had 2 quitters and 1 clear, rest all looked good. I'll check them for movement when I put them in the hatcher.

    I haven't been weighing but going by the change in air cell size. Last year I incubated at 40 something humidity and was increasing to around 70 at lockdown all in the sportsman. Didn't have great hatch rates and had eggs not loosing enough weight making the air cells be to small and fat heavy...

    I am so frustrated with hatching peas!!! I have 95-100% hatch rate on my turkey but terrible on the peas. The eggs are gathered, stored, incubated all the same. I sold the first three weeks of pea eggs because we had a trip planned and were going to be gone for 2 weeks. Then I saved the next 2...

    I have two royal palm toms, a royal palm hen and two blue slate hens, so more of the mixed poults than pure royal palms. Yes I also have peafowl, trying to get my waiting list for them filled. Hopefully will have more for sale next week or the next.

    Thanks for the reply, but I decided not to get them. Don't know how well I could sell them. There is a seller on eBay that sells hatching eggs from supposedly one of the few certified flocks of BSW.

    Comparing quail sizes

    I know, we are so dry already, it's going to be a hot dry summer. I set 13-17gm eggs, sometimes some 18 if they are not to round that I think they are not a double yoke. I usually can tell by how they fit in the gqf quail egg trays, before I even bother with the scale. I had to make spacers so...

    This egg is significantly larger than my turkey hens typically lay. I'll weigh them tonight and post the sizes.

    Do Spaulding hens lay speckled eggs? I have now collected two large light tan with brown specks eggs from my flight pen. If it wasn't so big and rounded I would think it was from one of the turkey hens. By the shape and size it is a peahen egg. I've not had a Spaulding hen before this year. The...
