hi all,

had 67 hatch from 100 on sunday , not bad being winter eggs, just a thought, with your hatched egg shell what do you do with them???

i put them in a container and crushed them up into fine small pieces ( quail egg shells) and feed them back to the adult quails.

anyone do this?

Well, I do that with my chicken egg shells up.. but as for quail egg shells, I don't have any.

thanks satay, looks like i will get some jumbos by mid September , hopefully i can breed and get 380 plus gram quails, it will take awhile, but its something i want to do for a long time, have jumbo jumbo quails, we are talking about 380 gram plus quails. in the usa they have 400 gram quails on average. thats the goal.

Do we ever wonder what people would do if they ever had a life... Grrrr. Ok I am having a bad day. Just got a letter from food safe qld saying they were going to be prosecuted if I kept selling duck eggs (for eating) on gumtree. I sell hatching eggs. I had a guy the other day ring and ask if he could eat the duck eggs. I said sure if you want to spend $30 on eating eggs and laughed. Seems he though I was serious and reported me to food safe qld. Some days I really do wonder what people are thinking...

Knowing you and your dedication mate that will not be a problem for you to achieve. I can't wait to see picks of them when they get to that weight.

O geez Satay, that's dumb. Im so sorry you have to deal with so many "quacks". What's wrong with advertising eating eggs anyway?
