Quail eggs have a shorter incubation period than chicken eggs, which is typically around 17 to 18 days. For quail eggs, it is recommended to stop turning them on day 14 of incubation. This is because the embryos will start to position themselves for hatching during the last few days of development, and movement or rotation of the eggs can disrupt this process and harm the developing chicks.
No, it is not physically possible for a hen to lay two eggs at the same time. Hens lay eggs one at a time through their cloaca, which is a single chamber where the digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems converge. Once an egg is laid, it takes some time for the next egg to move through the reproductive tract and be ready for laying. While it is not uncommon for some hens to lay two eggs in one day, they are laid separately at different times.
The thing is, it seems that we who do not have pfms are "shat upon" and "at the bottom of the pecking order." However, the premium guys get access to everything.
Yep, we're at the bottom of the pecking order, just like my chicken. Welcome to the life.
I came to this site to learn about chickens, and to make friends that know useful things.
