so far our plan is to each keep two buttons, (hopefully 2 males 2 females)so its funny that 6 are definitely alive(thinking about early xmas gift for my cousin for last 2), as for the big ones we plan to candle them Thursday in 2 days, that will be day 6 for them like we did the buttons, plus thats our anniversary day so well candle them a lil late.

That’s when mine hatch. Our largest snow angel, Snowflake, crowed today :-( hopefully he’s the only male. We call the smallest Baldi, I think she’s a hen, I was hoping they were all hens, but I suspected snowflake was male. Idk if I imagine it, but I feel like the back of hens heads are more fleshy, and the roosters have less of a flesh bump, I planned to test this theory with the snow angels, and by that reasoning I thought Snow was male.

Time for today's update, so coturnix eggs coming, got the tracking number yesterday late but there is a time difference in states. So I'm hopeful, it says Monday but well see if it gets here early , just watching some netflix so i dont mother hen the incubators, i try to keep it down to every hour when i can force my self (mostly to add a few drops of water to the old incubator).

So far this incubator is great, temp keeps matching the thermometer i tested and humidity is steady, i really really love the sliding vent on the back to control it, and the turning (watched it for hours to make sure, and i mean hours.) is safe so far and does a gentle slow push. Here is how they are set up until the coturnix eggs get here. My extra thermometer/hygrometer should be here my monday thanks amazon , really good reviews on the twin pack, non digital, (let me just insert a pic of that too here ) and then ill compare its thermometer to my tested one, then do a zip lock salt test for the hygrometer.(lol i luke the lil fox i drew i zoomed in on it)

I would love the like to that hydrometer/ thermometer!

Sure these are what i ordered, on one the humidity is only off by 1 and on the other its off by 5(it reads the lines by2's so two lines and a half) but on both the temperature is perfect, both non digital.

At this point, the buttons are due for the 19th, and the wait is now starting to kill me , i want my darn lil babies, the misses is already planning a basking spot in the window for when she's crocheting they can play with the yarn like snow used to. Just 9 more days or less just 9 more days or less.

Thank you! I am constantly on the hunt for good ones for my iguana enclosure. You think keeping the temp and humidity of an incubator is hard try a 4'x5 x 6' tall box!

So excited to see the quail, I was just showing my husband some button chicks on craigslist this morning. How big are the adults?

Max 4 inches and females are normally bigger so some don't get past 3 and half, they are adorable,
As u can see this was our snow(name not type or morph) a few pics of her getting the pets and cuddles and scratches she loved, then size comparison pics like the yarn and the dvd remote that she pooped on cuz i took her peanut away.
Should have seen the day she realized she don't fit in my sleeve anymore.
