cold weather and quail eggs

post #1 of 3

how cold can my  JQ eggs get before they cannot be incubated?

That depends on how long they were cold and to what temp. Generally eggs should be stored at no less than 50 degrees. But temps in the 40's for a few hours shouldn't hurt anything. Freezing temps are definitely no good.
