    WHEN TO LOCK DOWN EGGS?

    2 broody quails sitting together

    Both of my female quails are sitting on their eggs right next to each other, like the 2 egg clutches are pretty much in the same best I was just wondering if I can move then both into the same cage or would this start fights and maybe even cause the chick's to be killed once they hatch?
