Was it soft shelled? What are you feeding them? How many in the pen?

PDZ is in the horse things, stall sweetener. I mix it with play sand.

I use a rubber bowl for dusting in the pen. Pen floor is sand, sweet PDZ mix over plywood. Bit messy but I use a cat box scoop to clean it out.

These lil ones are getting use to us very quickly. The way my brooder is I am half in it to feed etc. Most of this hatch is going to the freezer. Only want to keep 5 adults for layers.

Updated pic of my 3 week olds. Think I may need to build a new pen! Bit of a chick explosion here. Have a pair of month olds, then the 3 wks old and have a hatch going now. Think I may have a bit of a obsession.

Quail calls from a 4 day old! So amazing how fast they grow! 17hatched out 2 have passed. Still have 3 days untill the hatch ends. Mmmmm quail nuggets.

#6 is out.

Lol, i should have chicks hatch for a week with this one. Plus I filled the bator the rest of the way Saturday with an egg shipment I received. Should be my last hatch for the year, unless I set more quail since they grow so fast.

The first 4 out of 51 eggs set.

The hatch has begun, 3 are out so far.

It should be ano almost week long hatch. Collected eggs for a week, then set those, collected eggs every day after and added those too.

Thank you, doors slide to the left and I have only had one escape since far while collecting eggs. My current birds are use to me partially climbing in the pen after eggs.

My quail pen/ brooder without the doors. The doors just slide left and right to open and close. I installed a strand of LED lights so each space is lit. It works more like a Woods Coop I think. I keep a fan on my adults when needed.

Mixing it with play sand. It is working great, use a cat litter scoop and then add more. Just curious if anyone else is doing the same. My pen is a brooder box/quail pens with wooden bottom. One pen has my breeding bunch the other two are empty for now.

Does anyone use PDZ in their pens? I have solid bottom pens, that I scoop out 2x a week.

@ 50 of em with a week to go till hatch. Thinking to leave them in the rails on the bottom of the bator for hatching out. First time incubation on em.

Welcome to the thread Bhu! Please let us know how your hatch goes. I have 50 in mine with a week left on them.

I am sorry I am new to cots myself. If you are using the app that may be your problem. Or if you ate a newer member you have not yet reached the required number of posts yet to share pics. Hope someone answers you soon on the quail.

Thank you!
