August 2021 Hatch-A-Long

[AusHen]

I "accidentally" found myself on ebay looking at hatching eggs and somehow a bunch of eggs ended up in my cart!!! Eggs should all be shipped next week which means August hatches.
I will be setting 48 Jumbo Coturnix Quail, 24 Button Quail and 12 Leghorn (mix of blue, black, white and exchequer) or at least how ever many of those eggs survive.

30 something chicks..... I haven't counted correctly yet

Button quails are arriving today and the Coturnix have been shipped so I best get all my incubators ready to set them after resting. I also may have ordered 8 Pekin duck eggs as well

27 Eggs into Lockdown last night

1st pip this morning..... hoping for a whole lot more by the time I get home from work

The leghorns have started pipping

 

[AusHen]

Ichi, Ni and Kevin. candled the other eggs, ones internally pipped and it looks like I may have lost the 5th

24 perfectly intact little button quail eggs. probably the best quail packaging I have received so far. were in a nice padded parcel with a HUGE fragile sticker as well

If you can count them, you don’t have enough.
