    Breed and gender question

    My incubator doesn’t have a humidity gauge so I bought some little ones I can put inside. There was a difference of about 20% between them so I figure okay one is broke... did a salt test they were 73% and 72% okay not broke. So why is one showing such a difference in the incubator??? Right now...

    Anyone hatching quail?

    I’ve never hatched anything but got an offer for a cheap incubator and eggs for $20 so I said sure why not. I’m not holding my breath as it’s literally a plastic bowl with a lid, a lightbulb and aluminum foil.... but figure if we get something great if not it was a learning experience. We...
