Aloha,

I only have chicken egg racks in my automatic turner. Will it still work for the quail eggs?

Thanks, Puhi

chicken egg racks are quite a bit large in comparison, but where there is a will there is a way. You could put some squares of paper towel in the egg racks so that they wont fall through the bottom, or wrap each egg loosely then set it in the turner. It should work I think.

Better get some jumbos then.

I was kinda leaning towards the pharaohs.

It appears as if all my quail will be "late bloomers", if they do hatch at all. :/

Any joy? Mine still havent hatched, am thinking about ordering more on the assumption these arent going to hatch, then if they do I will be delighted and have more coming and if not I can clear out and clean then try again straight away!

I'm on the same boat: day 19 with 15 button quail eggs :/

Not yet. It's making me worried. I really thought at least a third would hatch. Why wouldn't it, after all? If they end up not hatching, I'd like to know why.

Me too, first hatch so keep looking in every hour for movement or pips, no joy! Started wondering if the thermometer humidty meter are wrong and generally assuming they are all dead. 25 made it to day 10 so I keep telling myself one or two should hatch, however none are moving or wiggling and no pips or signs of life . Maybe they are just slow, for me its day 19 now so its not that bad!

Well, we're pretty much in the same situation. Good luck.
