Nothing like waiting till the last minute to think of this. Can someone tell me how long African harlequin quail take to hatch? I read somewhere 15 to 18 days but that leaves quite a period of not turning the eggs. I set them on June 10th so today would be day 13. Should I stop turning yet or...

My button babies are hatching. Started with 25 eggs and 13 have popped out and running all over the brooder. Hopefully more will be out when I get home. Have several different colors that look too cute. I will post some pics tonight.

I am looking for 10 or 12 Silver pheasant hatching eggs. I got 2 from a buddy that are a week old so I need them quickly to incubate all at the same time. Thanks in advance, Greg

I was just curious if anyone had any of these pheasant in the US. I was browsing and came across a website from the UK and these are beautiful birds. I would like to know if they are raised over here and whether eggs or birds could be purchased. Thanks, Greg

Ok I finally got my cages set up for my buttons. can you guys tell me if I paired them male female. I know they may not get along but I wanted to try to get pairs to start off with. Then I have a white one that I dont know what it is and also another that doesn't have a companion. Can I bunk...

I was surfing thru the breeds section and came across this picture. Aren't the pointed ends supposed to be down??? Or does it matter?

I am just curious about this. First is there a reason why chicks pip at the small end instead of large end? I had 4 ringneck eggs in a turner big end up. Thinking about it I moved the eggs to the hatcher a day early because I had more eggs needing to go in the incubator. Could that be a reason...

I have some ringneck eggs that I locked down last night. Went in to check on them this evening and have one already pipping. The problem is it is at the small end of the egg. It is a couple days early also. Can anyone tell me if this will be a problem or if the chick will hatch without help or...

These are my first buttons and I need help with the sexes if possible. Colors would be good too. Thanks,

I am looking at buying a new incubator and came across the Repti Pro. Has anyone used this bator and how does it perform? Would I be better off buying something else? Any and all comments/ suggestions appreciated!!

I have a couple problems I wanted to see if someone can explain or clear up for me. First I guess I should say I built a incubator and hatcher out of an old styrofoam cooler and compact refrigerator. I have 3 thermometers in the bator and all 3 read differently. Two are digital one is the stick...

These are 3 week old Autralorps that I hatched. Well 5 are Australorps and 1??? Three are getting their tail feather and three aren't. Can anybody guess or tell which are male and female? The picture isnt very good but maybe someone can tell or guess.

I am getting back into raising quail and built a homemade incubator from some of the plans on this site. I found a big styrofoam cooler and got a lamp socket hooked up to a water heater thermostat. Everything is working but I am getting a 5 degree variance in temp evey time the thermostat...
