    ➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

    @Kiki 120 eggs set 108 fertile (or couldn't tell and put them in lockdown, anyway.) 88 hatched (lost 1 because I put a basket on it by accident.) All eggs from my own flock of birds that are hatched from eggs from MyShire Farm. I got that new ion disk humidifier and it is working amazing...

    @Kiki I'll post screenshots of my hatch keeper with dates to help to this point. The third batch of the season is expected to begin hatching tomorrow morning. Would you rather I not post anything until the hatch is complete or update throughout? First batch ^ Second batch ^ Third batch...

    No worries. I tagged you to make things a little easier. So you don't have to read every thread to get your numbers. I'll begin doing this for you when I post numbers. I'm setting 120eggs/week, now.

    My third quail hatch is now on lockdown. Out of 120 eggs set to incubate, I set 108 in lockdown. I'm very happy with that number. My last hatch out of 107 eggs in incubator, 74 hatched. I'm hoping to get, at least, 80 out of this one. I've got a second turner running now and expecting...

    Seeing how my boys are home every day now and able to take some of the load off of my wife, her and I have been honing in our Fortnite skills along with the boys in our down time. LOL

    This is my final numbers. I had one very late hatch that had curled legs and toes and couldn't even roll off of its back after a full day. We tried for an entire day to roll out over and help it but, hopeless. I put the little guy out of his misery before he starved out. Ended up with 73...

    I took my ad off of craigslist almost 3 weeks ago and I still get messages almost daily asking if I've got quail available. I can't keep up with my demand. I'm adding another turner to my incubator to put 120 eggs in weekly, just to try and keep up.

    I have the air circulated throughout the incubator. The controller sensor is about 6 inches below my accu-rite thermometer/hygrometer. They are usually within 1/4 degree of each other and humidity doesn't vary by more than a few %. I believe it's very consistent. I just got a second turner...

    ➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

    moved a large amount of babies to the brooder. Numbers so far are 107 eggs started, 97 fertile(or maybe fertile), 69 hatched. Got 2 more that are almost completely unzipped. If this is the last of the hatches, it's not bad numbers for the issue I had. Anything more is bonus.

    I have a backup temp and humidity meters that confirm temps 99.5-100°F. I had a mishap on day 14+15. Humidifier broke and shorted out the heater. Had to get replacements installed to function properly. Temp dropped to low 70's for little over an hour on Wed. I let the temp and humidity...

    Second hatch in a row, quail didn't begin hatching until day 19. Originally set 107 eggs, 97 fertile and as of last night I moved 20 to brooder and 5 new still hatching or still wet in hatching trays. For a temporary current hatch rate of 23% and 26% of fertile hatched. I'm expecting a whole...

    Second hatch had an issue, yesterday (on day 15). I noticed my donut humidifier was no longer working. So, I replaced with a mini fogger. It's not hooked up through the controller so, I need to monitor manually. While cooking dinner, I turned it on and forgot about it. Humidity got to around...

    @Kiki My sister-in-law got my wife and I a hanging wooden carving that says something along the lines of "Smith Family Established October 10, 2006". Then, also has each of our names carved into it. It's absolutely gorgeous and she says was very expensive. Well, I got to point it out on...

    ➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

    Got home from work this morning to 2 baskets full of chicks running around. So far, of the 84 eggs in hatch, almost 60 are hatched. About 6 more zipping and/or hatching. Gotta let then dry. It was a late hatch but, they all look healthy and lively. Pics later.

    I did that, as well. Out of the 84 I moved to hatch, about 5 were maybe's. Too dark to tell but, didn't want to risk it.

    Well, after moving 84 eggs to hatch this past Wednesday, not a single eggs hatched on Friday or Saturday. Saturday was expected hatch day but, I've usually got eggs that begin on Friday night. Woke up this morning (Sunday) to 2 birds hatching. Not quite out yet but, they were clearly going to...

    Did all 21 eggs hatch, as well? Even though it was only 21 eggs, that's really good. I usually get about 80-90% hatch from fertile eggs. That's based on my candling the eggs when moved to lockdown.
