Can i hatch quail eggs in chicken egg trays?

[KaleDaDuck]

Okay so im currently hatching muscovy eggs but. I am thinking of getting quail eggs.. Can they fit in the typical chicken turning tray?

Yep. You sure can...well depending on your incubator. The one my husband and I used we’ve done it twice. Just place the quail egg as: small end of the egg down, and the big end up. My husband just mentioned that quail eggs can be stored at room temp for up to a week before they are incubated just some FYI

And for reference we have the hovabator 1588 model.

Yes they can. I was going to buy quail rails but someone told me not to because they can fit in chicken egg turners.
