OMG this is the cutest! I decided to put Mom Quail back since the nonstop calling are really reminding us of those baby crying days.. anyways we watched her closedly and she didn't attack the chicks. Even showed a couple of them to take a drink from the fountain. And by lunch time, both parents...

Hi guys & gals, one more just hatched 30 mins ago.. now I have 7 of them (should I name them Days of the Week?) but I can see two more eggs have cracks on them...Papa Quail is an excellent parent! I can tell he is very tired... he's been dozing off and can barely keep his eyes open, but jumps...

Either the eggs are dead or I have miscounted the start date of incubation. The weekend came and go with no sign of anything. I read the "sticky" note about testing the eggs using the float method, so last night I sneaked in while the hen's eating and took one egg out and tested. It was a low...

This one has no white bib, so could be a girl?

Awesome! Welcome another Texan! Hope your flock handles the heat ok!

Augie's been sitting like this most of the time (day and night) for more than 2 weeks now. She's all puffed up. We went to youtube last night and watched some button quail hatching videos, really wish I can see the hatching with my own eyes!

I am hoping the eggs will hatch soon... please wish me luck. Will post pics
