for simply rule:

you need to put the egg inside a *room* that can keep:

temp: 99-101 deg in F for 21 days
humidity : 35-45% for 18 days
turn the egg at least 3 times a day for 18 days

when it come to 19-21 days

keep temp the same: 100 deg in F
humidity 60-75%
no more turning
and don't open the bator at all cost (that's many people's rule)

I dont think they take as long as chicken eggs and need a higher humidity contact shelleyd2008 she'll tell you all you need to know on button Quail

ups, pamperedpoultry's right, that's for chicken.

not for quail, quail is faster to hatch.

 

[mulia24]

well, perhaps 18 days.

here i search a newly hatching quail.
