So today is Day 19. I've got 4 baby quail that have hatched so far. Mama Silkie and Aunt Lou are keeping protectiive watch over the littluns and still waiting to see if the other eggs will hatch. Baby quail are super cute.
Here are the Mamas... Mama Silkie, who bogarts all the eggs and chicks for herself, and Aunt Lou, who thinks she has a major part in it all, but really just hangs out and keeps Mama Silkie company.
And the newest to hatch, with Mama Silkie looking on happily....
