I was just asked to rescue 9 Gambel's quail eggs, the mom was just grabbed by a hawk about 10 minutes ago and the eggs are on the way here to the incubator. They said she's been on them 10 - 14 days. What is the temp and humidity I need to have them at and at what day do they hatch? Should I put them in the turner or just in hatcher on their sides?

The eggs are here, I hope someone can help me out with them. Would I treat them the same as the Coturnix? That is what I am doing right now until I hear differently.

I THINK they take 24 days to hatch

Wow,, longer than a chicken?? Maybe I should put them in the turner then instead of on their sides.

I did a google search and it came up with 21 to 23 day incubation

Good luck with your rescue eggies !!!
