Mrs. AK-Bird-Brain :

That IS a pretty big egg for a first timer...

Congratulations!! You will soon have more quail than you know what to do with!!! I have about 50 eggs in the bator, about 20 in the hatcher, and about 25 more to go in the bator.

Don't know where I'm going to put all the babies, but I'll figure something out! LOL!

Ha ha thank you! And i know crazy right!? That's her small egg too, her others are bigger and bigger every time she lays. When she lays her egg tonight I'll line them up Day one thru day 4 to show the size changes

Nothing too dramatic but it's still facinating to me. This is my granddaughters childrend to be

I've never seen a solid quail egg? Does she have silkie in her?

 

[LilRalphieRoosmama]

Yes!!! Very nice!!!!! And perfect size. Shouldn't have any problem with those.

Edited to add: I've had solid white ones and have been leery about those. Not quite sure why though.

 

[monarc23]

awh no reason to be leary of white eggies hehe! Heck they lay blue eggs too sometimes (my tibetans have). I've had powder blue solid eggs...and poweder blue eggs with chocolately brown streaksthose are neat.

Yep shes park Silkie PC...shes' evvilll
