Hahaha! Yeah they're tiny. Coturnix quail grow up to about 1 pound at jumbo size. Mine are probably 0.5-0.75lbs I think? We are calling them Bumble (Bumble Bee) and Leia (Princess Leia).

RachG11, my daughter is an RN in pediatrics and she says the same thing about her tribe. I wish she were closer to help me deliver my babies when I get some. She delivered my dogs when I raised Schnauzers and she was only 15. I knew then she would be an outstanding nurse. What's your duck's name? Is it a Call?

Oooh.... Chigger sized quail!! Those are so tiny. I bet you don't let them get too far off. Blink and they'd be hiding in a thimble or a shoe. They are adorable... Congratulations!!

Oh my goodness, that is an amazing picture! I've been thinking of you every day even when I don't comment

Hubby has been gone for 2 weeks on training and I've got 3 kiddos and 4 quail eggs on lockdown and part time work. I was so busy and exhausted I got mastitis. It was too much for my immune system, and I ended up putting in my 2 weeks notice. Hubs is home for the long weekend and then he has 3 more weeks gone. I start my final semester of nursing school on Tuesday, and it's been stressful for sure. Reading your posts always gives me a boost. You're so encouraging and optimistic even when things are rough. I'm definitely happy to have found your thread, and I'm rooting for you and praying for you. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I got 2 tiny coturnix hatchlings between last night and this morning, so if you want pictures of TINY TINY hatchlings, let me know!

I would love to see pictures!!!
