➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[BantyChooks]

@BantyChooks Would you know? I seem to recall that you were the one pushing button quail eggs... View attachment 1990948

No, sorry.

 

[BantyChooks]

Do button quail incubate for the same amount of time as coturnix quail?

Maybe I shouldn't ask that question. I don't need button quail. View attachment 1990952 I don't. I just kind of want them.

Awww, crap. Someone local has some... https://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/pet/d/novato-button-quail/7046154536.html

Pretty close, yes. C'mon. Just a few. They won't take up that much room.

Pets for me, they're fun animals to have around. They do cute things, they're more interactive than most small cage birds (mine come running for treats). I keep mine from a background in exotic animal husbandry, so they are kept in large indoor cages with reasonably natural setups. They need to be kept in male/female pairs mostly, sometimes related same sex groups are alright.

Do Buttons have the same scalping tendencies that the coturnix do?

Maybe Pharoahs start before the others?

The jumbos that I had started laying at exactly 6 weeks. I kind of regret selling them since I've had crap for eggs from my other birds.

I can get 2 dozen eggs for $15. I think I'm going to. They're short lived, so if it's a mistake, it's only two or three years...

The person I contacted about the eggs mentioned how aggressive coturnix are, so I would guess not.

@Kiki their hatching

What colors?

I thought some people didn’t like the off topic stuff????

But maybe novels are worse haha

Sorry.

I’ve tried not typing them, I really have, but it never works. Even if it starts short, it always ends longer. But I guess I should work on it a bit.

But even on topic ones?

But I guess some are totally unnecessary like the one about the rooms or animals or whatever the other day haha and that one I probably should have not typed, off topic and a novel, so sorry, but others if I try to shorten it it leaves important stuff out. But I guess I need to work on it/try harder.

Or avoid posting if I can’t haha

Sorry.

Wait... is this one? Shit.

Kdog you really do crack me up.

Not as much, in my limited experience.

I only had 1 jumbo hen before all these auctioned eggs grew up, I managed to keep back 4or6 jumbo females for my own breeding. I'm gonna save them all with the hope that they are fertile for my next hatch.
I'm just about fed up with the scalpers, it seems they're worse the instant they hit puberty!
