Coturnix Eggs, Banty eggs

[MargaretAnneHK]

This past weekend I put 100 Coturnix Quail eggs in the Incuview. A relative also brought some Old English Game Bantam eggs for me to incubate. Coturnix due May 22 and Banties due May 30.

Yup though I am getting a bit burned out lol. After this I will just be incubating a couple small batches of Icelandic eggs for others.

Some exciting plans you have for the year. Hopefully the majority of them hatch.

I hope so lol. Ive already incubated chickens, geese, ducks and turkey eggs.

Good on you. I’m terrible at incubating eggs. I’m always candling to see if their alive and growing. 5 weeks ago I tried it out for the first time (it didn’t go so well) from now on I’ll be using my broody hens. There’s always one
I’ll try incubating again but for now I’ll just sit back relax and let the hens do the job. Bit of bob does no harm when they grow up, it pays for the feed

I have a duck sitting on 15 eggs, they’re dew in 5 days and I have a broody RIR hen sitting on 12 Brahma eggs, dew in 2 weeks
