    Quail Egg Incubation Help

    I'm getting quail eggs soon. My incubator constantly stays between 98-100F is this good? Or does it need to be more precise?

    Adult bobwhites not laying...ideas?

    Hey, friends. I have 5 mature female bobwhites that hatched out in September. None of them have laid eggs yet. I was wondering since I got the "Georgia Giant" variety there may be something wrong in their genes since they were bred specifically to be larger. Once there were a total of 16 in the...

    I need some advice with quail eggs.

    Okay so, I recently tried hatching a chicken egg and the chick ended up dieing before it hatched. I guess my mom felt bad or something, because she went and order 7 quail eggs and I'm really lost on what to do. I currently have the incubator at 37.5 C and humidity at 47. I am using the janoel 12...

    Incubator only goes up to 98.4

    I just got Bobwhite eggs to hatch with my first graders. We have hatched ducks and chicken in the past. Anyway, my incubator is only going up to 98.4°. Bobwhite eggs need 99.5 from everything I read. Is it okay to incubate at this somewhat lower temperature, or should I invest in a new incubator?

    Help please. Can I stop the incubation of quail eggs.

    Hi guys. I have started incubating some quail eggs today but only for 10mins so far I was wondering if I could stop incubating them and put them back into storage a bit longer? Is this possible or will this mean I won't be able to incubate them anymore?

    Can Coturnix Quail Be Kept Outdoors In Winter?

    Hey everyone, I was just wondering, could Coturnix Quail be kept outdoors (in Illinois) during winter? They would obviously need some sort of shield to block from wind, snow, etc., but would they need a heat lamp? Any special extra-protein diet? I probably won't be getting any Coturnix for a...

    Moving Quail with eggs

    This quail has laid eggs before they hatched in the aviary and chicks were killed by other quails. I tried moving one of my other quails who laid eggs a couple weeks ago but she had a heart attack and died while being moved. How do I move a quail with her eggs into a separate cage safely?
