6 out of the 8 eggs that made it to lockdown have hatched. These were some of the eggs that my quail laid.

Awesome!
Congrats.
My power went out this early this morning for a few hours.
Bator only got down to 90F.
I am not too worried about that temp, I am more worried I set non fertile eggs again.

My quails are 12 weeks old already and still only 2 are laying.
What's wrong with them?

Mine are 14 weeks and have been laying for about a month now. I have 5 females and get 4-5 eggs a day.

How much light are they getting per day? They should be in full production by now.

Are you sure the ones not laying aren't males?

I still having added light...which is probably one of the problems.

I am fairly certain I have at least 7 females, but probably 9 females and one male.

The two tuxedos and one all cream/grey are the only ones I am unsure of. The others all have speckled chests except the one red chested male.

Have you tried vent sexing them? It’s prettu simple. I learned from a you tube video.

No I haven't looked that up yet.
