Are human-quail bonds possible
Hi, I have a ~4 week old quail that I've raised from an egg and was the only survivor of its clutch, being raised inside my home. When it's old enough it will go outside, but in the meantime lives inside a bunny hutch in my spare room. I was wondering, how likely is it that quail have the... -

Advice for pipping quail, day 22...
I have a clutch of 15 eggs, all viable as of day 14. It's now day 22 for my quail and yesterday we had 5 start pipping. The humidity has been between 50-70% since day 14 and heat at 99.5. Is it true it can take 12-24 hours for quail to "unzip"? Any other advice for a first-time hatcher too...- SMMS3617

Unusual egg found--cause for concern?
I have 8 week old Jumbo Coturnix hens laying for about a week or so now. Today I found this weird little nugget alongside a normal egg. I don't know who is laying as I think only 3 of my 9 are and I have t yet caught them in the act. Should I be concerned? I don't think that this is a lash egg...
