Thank for the advise. I have managed to move there cage now, across my muddy garden. I have used bricks around the inside edge, then put in about 2 inch of gravel. Then put another 2inch of wood chippings on. I will post a picture later if i can.

Hi, I have a big walk in cage for my 12 quails. They love it in there. But during the recent wet weather the floor (concreate slabs) gets horrible. We normally put hay down but its just getting soaked. I was thinking of using gravel or something that any water can at least drain through? Any...

I have had a thought, perhaps they became ill from the eggs not being cleaned? I read alot online, some saying you should clean the eggs but then alot saying you shouldn't clean the eggs. Out of 12 eggs only 3 hatched, perhaps the others didn't develop enough and hatch because they caught...

I hope so, i have noticed one more is cracked but no sign of anything else. Think I will take this one out the incubator in a little bit once she/he has dried out. Should I put food in the brooder as well? I know he/she doesnt really need it until 24 after hatching but it not cause any harm...

Well the one which had the crack in it yesterday has hatched at about 5.30am this morning. No sign of the others yet though.

:D I have noticed another one with the same sort of crack. Also we have just seen this one wiggle :D

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me. I have 12 quail eggs in a incubator, it is currently day 17. I have just noticed a very small crack in on of the eggs and was wounding if this could be the start of pipping? Or is pipping when a full piece of come off the egg?
