My first time ever incubating Quail eggs.

Yeah, he may be long gone by now. Off adventuring in the woods, but you never know, he might get homesick.

That little quail just sounds like she's the runt. I had a hamster much the same, he never really grew; he died prematurely. A lot of runts have other health issues, but it's good she's doing well for now. I think it may be for the best if you keep her with you as you suggested, the little runts do usually get picked on unfortunately.

House is still a mess lol, it's gonna be years before everything is fixed, but we are going to get some new slates for the roof next week so hopefully that will stop the drip in my room.
 
Hi im from the USA and I'm also a first quail hobbyist I'm in the process of setting up my own still air incubator it's made from an old plastic storage tote and a heat lamp I have a jar of water in there to jump start the humidity levels and maintain the temp substrate is a layer of pine shavings but since i plan to convert the tote over to a brooder after the eggs have hatched I will be covering the glass jar with the cover it came with to prevent unwanted drowning amongst the newborn chicks right now temps are at a solid 98.5 degrees Fahrenheit hoping the temp gets a lil bit higher by tomorrow morning lol not sure wat the humidity is at only thermometer I could find doesn't read humidity sadly need to find an extra one that does also I have not ordered my eggs yet I plan to buy locally from a local breeder a good 2 dozen or more if there is room in the incubator and my budget lol but if I can't buy any In time from the local breeder then I'm gonna order a few clutches off eBay anyone have good suggestion for eBay sellers to consider? Thanks to all in advance!
