    Quail sitting on unfertilized eggs

    I'm not sure the percentage, but I feed her chicken food; the chick starter. She is under shade, but she gets some sunlight. She's two years old, but I've heard of them living 3-6 years, so it is probably the cold weather. She's currently alone; there is another male where they can't see each...

    Quail sitting on unfertilized eggs

    She's alone, and she doesn't make nests anymore, but she just likes to sit/squat in a corner or out in the open and looks like as if she was about to run. She doesn't lay eggs anymore, but that might be due to the 50/60 degree Fahrenheit weather these days. She has a bowl of dirt which she uses...

    Quail sitting on unfertilized eggs

    Sorry I'm pestering you, but I'm not actually sure she's completely un-broody. She's incredibly scared of people now (or maybe mad?) and will make angry quail noises (or something like that) and try to get away. She'll eat the mealworms I give her, but not from my hand anymore because she's not...

    Quail sitting on unfertilized eggs

    I have broken her, but she is very light and her poop is much smaller from not eating very much when she was broody, and she has lost a lot of feathers, probably from her minimal diet. Is this normal? Should I feed her some probiotics to help her gain back her weight?

    Quail sitting on unfertilized eggs

    Sorry this is a little late; I've taken the eggs away, but she still lays down in the corner as if there are eggs under her, but there are no eggs. She still acts broody but she isn't sitting on any eggs!:barnie

    Quail sitting on unfertilized eggs

    She's been sitting on them for about 5 days, and still no sign of life.

    Quail sitting on unfertilized eggs

    Ok, I guess I'll take the eggs away. And I keep her separate from the male.

    Quail sitting on unfertilized eggs

    Hi! So my quail got broody and started sitting on some eggs, but when I checked if the eggs were developing, I saw that none were. I couldn't find anyone who was selling fertile quail eggs, so she's just sitting on empty eggs. So do quails keep sitting on the eggs after 3 weeks? I don't want to...
