Count seems off i wonder if I have someone sneaking eggs in the bator when I’m not home

You do store your eggs in the incubator, don't you? Just in case they are fertile...

I am about done with changing paper towels already.

It's cold here. I need it to warm up today so I can boot my babies outside.

From my 1st Myshire Jumbo Wild hatch: out of 18, 15 hatched and 3 late quitters. Quitters were completely formed hadn't absorbed yolk.

I wish they would hurry up and get their feathers all the way in so I can see what color they're going to be.

This tuxedo one has some weird white feathers.

How long do you feed the high protein stuff?

I've been mixing Game Bird (30%) with Layer (20%) to cut the protein to 25% for the quail layers. I started this after Zac mentioned feed on his utube. Save money.

@Kiki Now I read that you are feeding 16% chicken layer to the quail? When do you switch at 8 weeks or earlier?

I've been switching at about 6 weeks.

No noise makers here yet but I think they are all boys.
