➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[007Sean]

In 2020, I'll will have been?

For the 2 grow out batches, the males are not crowing nor foaming. Confirmed with the butchering that the whites aren't telling me their intentions. Afraid I will weigh and have to keep the largest plus a couple extras to get a couple females for the breeder set.

The bleached one is large and is a girl. She may be kept.

For fertility, any concerns with year old males? MyShire said 6 months for boys and 12 months for girls. I'm pushing the limit here.

Is that a Pearl or Snowy?
How do y'all get wild~type tuxedos? I've never got a single one like that, only Tibetan, Silver, or Rosetta'ish (red ones). I only breed my tuxes with other tuxes.

I think we need a new poll @Kiki and probably time to total the 2019 hatches and get ready for the new year!! I think the next ones due are NYD??

My next hatch of my eggs isn't due until the 6th.

I'll finalize the 2019 sheet/numbers today or tomorrow AND get the new sheet ready to go... With more detailed info.
I have not been so good at keeping this year's sheet updated so everyone take a quick look and let me know if I am missing anything.

You've been awesome!
Good job!

125 quail is my final number. Can you believe that we are slowly coming up on 1 year of quailness?
Time flies like an arrow.
Fruit flies like a banana.
I have to slow down to prevent having to build more coops. 10 butchered this morning, about to wind down for winter. 13 to go. Saving 12 for eggs next year.

I butchered 7 a couple days ago, I've got to decide what I want to do with the rest of these males.
Anyone else having trouble getting your jumbo eggs fertile, my roos aren't being successful with my jumbo hens?

We?

Yes, "we" are a flock of enablers here on this forum!

And poor Crunchy.

If I can figure out which one of these males is the one that's crowing I'm going to put him in a cage with six girls.
And then I will eat one male and little crunchy which will leave one male and two females left in this cage.

Probably "Crunchy" that's crowing!

I have two incubators, one is cleaned out, & ready for eggs. Yes, I wanna hatch some, jumbo brown coturnix Japanese.

I bet someone has some of those!

Set 7, 7 hatched, Mexican Speckeled Bob's.

I need to order some Bob eggs.

And some Buttons too.....

New game....type in “in 2020 I’ll”.....and let your phone finish it! Here’s mine.....In 2020 I’ll get to see y’all!!

"In 2020 I'll have a couple more days to go back and try again...."

What the crap? I don't want to do all this over again!!!

A year old is ok in my opinion.
