They are much smaller than chicken eggs, so they may float much faster.
About 3 weeks! Give or take.
diggerduck....you need some more hens! If you are getting 1 egg a day from 1 hen, if you have 85 hens, then you will be getting about 80 eggs a day.....just something to think about

Well, I know that as a boiled egg, I wouldn't even try them before they sat in the fridge for at least 3 weeks. Just too hard to peel until they've aged.
Frankly, I've got so many chicken, duck, and turkey eggs not bothering with quail eggs for human consumption. A couple of times, I put a whole bunch in the food processor shell and all, pulverized, then cooked for the chickens.

Eggs keep a lot longer than people think. Here is a neat test Mother Earth News did on chicken eggs...

I have a wife that is trying her hardest to limit my quail addiction. I am picking up three more hens tomorrow, so that will be one boy to five girls. I hope that picks things up a bit. I am super new to this so kinda feeling my way thru this site to try and figure things out. I see it as a victory that I have had six birds for three weeks without killing a single one.

at one egg a day you could be waiting a minute for an omelet
I agree- more hens needed. recommend- go buy ms. diggerduck a massage at spa, when she returns- have new hens already in place...

WOW! thanks for sharing...
the cliff notes;
" [2] The very best way we've found to stash eggs away for long-term storage is in a sealed container at a temperature of 35° to 40°F. Their whites may become somewhat runny looking over a period of time, but even after seven monthsthe cackleberries stored in this manner smell good, taste good, have a good texture, andin shortseem "almost fresh"."
