Button Quail Hatch-a-long, 3 batches

[TeresaW]

I'm trying again! I know y'all told me to wait, but batch number 1 are eggs from my young hens. There's 15 of them labeled A-O. I just put them in my Little Giant.

Batches two and three (one dozen each) are due to arrive on Monday, so they'll go in the incubator on Tues.

Suggestions for three different themes, one for each batch?

Candy of junk food would be a fun theme.

I added two more of my own quail eggs, so it's now A-Q. 17 in total.

1 dozen are due to arrive today (originally both were) and
1 dozen arrive on Tuesday.

My own eggs are a lot darker than the ones I'd bought for my first hatch, so I won't bother candling those. I've got one hen laying blue eggs and the other laying brown.

I've decided on themes:

1st Batch: A-Q, pick a letter and a name that starts with that letter.
2nd Batch: 1-12, Candy theme
3rd Batch: i-xii, Stones/Gemstones
