    Chick drowned, waterer suggestions?

    Dangit. Our firstborn perished overnight. I have a very flat dish with not even a tablespoon of water in it.

    Just hatched (quail). Is it broken?

    Expectant first time coturnix quail mommy, egg help please?!?

    Thank you! This makes me feel so much more at ease, as I’ve heard from others that I absolutely need to leave them alone until all viables are done hatching and just the thought makes my chest feel tight 😆 I don’t even have a quail baby yet and I’m already searching online for where I can get...

    Expectant first time coturnix quail mommy, egg help please?!?

    Hi! It’s my first time incubating eggs, ever. We received celadon coturnix eggs from a friend, her babies started hatching on day 14! We are on our day 13 right now, and when I went to add water yesterday there were 3 eggs wiggling! I texted my friend who warned me that hers started hatching...
