Awe! What kind?

If that's at me...button quail.

(Like I need button quail.

But

anyways!)
I don't think I'm gonna get much, if anything tho.

Quote: I got so excited when hubby pointed them out that I scared them and they all ran back under cover.

They're so itty, bitty little things. Maybe from a dwarf netherland/hotot female.
I WILL get pics. Eventually. I hope. Maybe today.
We have a boy pen and a girl pen.
They may (or may not) have decided to dig under their enclosures when we were combining.

I didn't think they'd raise a litter so late in the year. Surprise!

She might be the mom.

Domestic bunnies. @DwayneNLiz
I missed quoting you somehow.

FYI - baby bunnies are not cute when born

I have seen them, I still find them oddly cute.

Fluffy butts!!!!

I forgot to add my update. I candled last night.
Guinea eggs are out of the running. Kinda relieved, I have enough already.
And they're fighting my new rooster.

I only saw one button quail egg that may have something in it outta 7.

Didn't candle the rest. Time will tell. Very, very soon...lol.
Down to 23 chicky eggs in the 'bator but some are in the process of dying. I do find that part sad.
I'm guessing I'll end up with about 10 maybe which reduces my stress level greatly. Whew!

I like the way they jump when they get touched.

It's been years since we had bunnies. I miss them!

Got a great Halloween hatch with my homemade incubator. Had started with 7 peafowl eggs and 44 chicken eggs 3 weeks ago, got rid of the 7 peafowl eggs after 14 days of incubation for being unfertiled. I also candled the chicken eggs and 41 were fertile and developing out of the 44. Yesterday on day 20 they started hatching and by this morning the bators was packed with buffy butts. I just removed them and 40 out of the 41 remaining hatched!!!

Wow, congratulations!

Day 20. Heard a peep. Saw a wriggle. Makes me smile.
