➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

they were day 7+ and as expected non-fertile

Ah, okay, now that makes sense then.

So, when my 2 crowers in pen1 crow all the birds in pen2 go nuts running all over the place. No crowers in pen2 yet. Is that normal behavior when one crows nearby? The others in pen1 don't even pay the crowers any attention when they crow.

Day 7
I pulled all the clears.
I'm left with 6.

They are probably at the age where everything still freaks them out.

you mean to tell me that yours get over that? Mine still freak out every time I come near them.

I walked up to the quail tractor and one or a couple flushed into the lid a couple of times. Hoping it was more than a couple. I open the lid thinking I'm gonna get a quail to the face (again) but they all ran to the back.

Kiki changes the paper towels (and probably the dirt boxes) 20 million times a day.... they are forced to get used to her

I pulled my grey cinnamon button chicks out the hatcher last night. 13 hatched out of 20. Not bad considering I goofed and thought I killed all the chicks. It looks like a decent mix of wild type, blue face, and even one or two red breasted.

Mine are all over that.
I think it's because I am in everyone's cage multiple times a day. They are used to being messed with so it doesn't scare them.

Yes. They don't have an option.
