My Cots have been laying 9 eggs a day for almost a month and now the past two days they have not been laying as well. yesterday they layed 3 eggs and today I got none. Is it possible it is the heat causing this problem? I has been almost 100 degrees the past two days. If so, how can I keep them...
i put my tuxedo quail in at approximately 6pm on Mother's Day. According to my calculation tomorrow or Thursday should be hatch day but an app that I am using says today is hatch day. I am set up and ready either way but I just don't know. Any help?
yesterday I got 5 eggs from my new Texas a&m quail but today I haven't gotten any. Could the fact that we have had rain and it has been overcast all afternoon cause them to not lay? I am new to the egg laying experience.

I am now on my 6th day of incubation and I have had my incubator right at 100 the entire time and humidity between 50-60. However I was out of town yesterday and my humidity was down to 38% for probably 18-24 hours. Do you think I killed my hatch rate? Thanks for your help guys and gals.
