➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[CindyinSD]

Until last month, I’d only seen parts of two Seinfelds, and one Friends. I’ve now watched both shows all the way through, and I want my time back.

I’m not a big fan but I’ve seen them... most of them... all the way through. (DH loves them.) They have iconic moments and it hasn’t been so very long ago that you could growl, “Newman!” with malice and everyone would know you were complaining about your mail carrier. It’s like ‘Who’s on First’ only more recent and yeah, maybe not as funny, but still...

OMG even Duckling knows!? And I don’t!?

Even the modern cartoons for little children have old references that are from my parents’ day. I had to let her listen to the skit so she understood what the joke was in her cartoon.

That sounds like a good idea. Have you ever done it before? Would that few females be okay with the male? Does seem easier and nicer than having big groups though.



It is a good show but kinda outdated now haha

I have never integrated different groups of quail together before.

I think keeping a small group would be fine...I don't know.

I want to keep two breeder groups.
one with some of my July 4th and one group with some of my pansy babies.

Ah okay that makes sense.

Oh you’re thinking of integrating some of them? I was thinking these were from the same group?

Yeah, I think it’d probably be fine. I’m sure loads of people have done it.

That’s a good idea. I somehow didn’t realize you hatched July 4th babies haha

Guys I had a rotten/oozing egg in my incubator. How do I disinfect it? Diluted alcohol warm spray?

Listerene. I heard dilute listerene kills everything. I’ve tasted it & about died too.

agree. Had several roommates that loved both shows & I tried & failed to like them.

Should I hold one male back from my homegrown batch to put with female pansies?

dilutes the pansy down. Figure the males in that group aren’t related, i’d just keep a pansy male & go from there.

I am keeping the 2 white females with #3 jumbo male. No issues so far & we have foam.

Aggressive male & other 2 males not with females gets butchered today.

Getting almost a dozenish quail eggs daily.

My July 4th babies.... The 10 I have left I believe there are three males and seven females.


I'm wondering if I should keep three females and stick one of my new pansy males in with them.

I'm thinking I would like to process the rest this weekend.

I cannot bring myself to process the remainder of our original group of quail. I'm raising 27 small ones right now and hatching more still. So I know I'm going to have to make room for these new ones, especially with winter coming, but I don't like the idea at all of butchering them. Mind you, I had little problem with two butcher sessions this year already. It's just that this select group was kept as breeders and I don't want to lose them. I am already considering ways to bring them all into the garage along with the breeders I select from this new generation.

That's what I'm thinking...mixed up the genetics from these two different batches of quail that I have left.

I'm thinking I would like to keep a small group of just four quail.

I have just moved all my groups to 1:3 and my fertility's already in the pooper compared to 1:1 and 1:2. I would
not go higher either if they're mainly breeding groups.
