    Star Wars Hatch Along

    No pips for me yet but I did hear a soft knocking a little while ago and if I get really close to the bator I can hear a very faint chirp every so often. I am so excited! Sadly I don't thinking i'm getting any Star Wars babies since there's only an hour left in the day for me, but I'm not to sad...

    Chocolates are my favorite that I have raised this far! Although I would like to try Blue Slate soon.

    Star Wars Hatch Along

    I now have two sets of pharaoh coturnix eggs in the bator. 1 set is on day day 5 and last night I could see a few had veins developing. The other set is on day 2. I might add a third set because my Tuxedo's just started laying as well!

    Quail Spring Hatch a long!

    Well I candled my first batch on day 3 yesterday. There were a few eggs that looked like they had some development but I couldn't see much and no confirmed veins. I am thinking by tomorrow that will change so I will keep you updated. Meanwhile yesterday I put in a second batch of the Pharaoh...

    Quail Spring Hatch a long!

    I just put 6 of my Coturnix quail's eggs into the bator today. Last year I tried with 24 shipped eggs and only got 1 hatch. But this year I am pretty excited to have my own quails laying fertile eggs!!! Not sure how high the fertility rates are but we shall find out! I also have a friend who...

    Star Wars Hatch Along

    Well I am putting 6 of my couturnix quail eggs in to the bator tonight, and they should hatch on May 4th or maybe a day or two later. I just have to wait for the three freshly collected ones to sit for a few hours so the air pockets can form and then in they go! I can't wait to start with my own...

    Hey! I am responding to your message really late from the Qail hatch a long. I also live north of Seattle! Snohomish County. I’d love to buy some eggs from you if you have extra still or in the future!

    february hatch along

    Yes! I made it a from a smaller sock because she likes to crawl under it and I worried a lager and fuller sock would crush her! I have a heat lamp and a heating pad as well but she seems to prefer this. Probably feels more natural.

    Starting my first incubation off my cotirnix

    So glad to hear you have had better success than me! Out of my 24 only 1 hatched, but I'm giving it a day or two more just in case. How many have hatched now?

    Quail Hatch-a-long

    Well its been a few days and no more have hatched. I feel bad for my single baby so I take her with me almost everywhere. She is a back sleeper and it terrified me the first few times, they really do sleep like their dead! Anyway I think I'll give the eggs a day or two more before I give up but...

    Here is my little baby, I named Patience, as that is what she taught me. She is the only one to hatch so far.

    Quail Hatch-a-long

    Well no more have hatched yet so I’ve made a nice area for my single baby. When I first put her under the heat lamp she was shivering so I think it’s not quite strong enough but I can’t get it much closer to her so I put in a heating pad as well and I made a smaller rice and sock heat pad closer...

    Quail Hatch-a-long

    So the first one is out and I've decided to name her Patience, due to the fact that it took a lot of Patience to wait for these overdue babies/baby. It appears that Patience need some Patience because she keeps rolling around the other eggs and pecking at them.

    february hatch along

    At least one of my quails is hatching! I walked in an hour ago and saw shells on the ground but the pip is out of view. I didn't hear anything and was nervous, but now I'm hearing lots of peeping and the egg is even wiggling!
