Best way to start with button quail?

[Chickensrock10110]

Eggs or adult birds?
I 've been searching the web and it looks like eggs are a cheaper way.Any pros and cons for starting with their tiny eggs?
Is it OK to turn them by hand or is it prefered to have them set in a turner? Anyone you reccomend to buy eggs from? Looking to start with at least 25 but might go to 50 eggs if I find quail egg cups for my LG turner.

from my sad sad experiences with the fragile little button quail chicks, i would say it's better to get adults. the tiny little things get sick so easily. amd a few of mine died for no apparent reason. In all my years of hatching, i've never lost a chick until i tried button quails.
