ONE OF MY QUAIL EGGS PIPPED! e

There good be others but that's the only one I can see from the window.
I thought they were all due Sunday but I guess I counted wrong when I placed the quail. Looks like tomorrow is the quails due date and Sunday is the silkies due date.
I'm so excited! !

What a cute little chick? What do you call baby quail?

I set 72 eggs on Friday in the sportsman I just bought. I need to make my way over to the incubators anonymous thread but not willing to admit its a problem yet

I'm a hobby hatcher. I hatch and sell

me too sorta
I started hatching because I couldn't find the breeds locally that I wanted to add to my flock, then others asked me to incubate for them and whatever excess I had I sold
then I thought

these breeds that are rare but popular I can breed for eggs to sell!! so here I am lol

someone asked me yesterday how many birds I have? I couldn't answer! I need to count them lol
