Halloween/Thanksgiving Hatch-a-Long 2019

Jumbo brown coturnix quail! My first hatch ever!

How exciting!

14 of 16 are developed. 2 weren't fertile... BR still isn't breeding with the boys. I give up on her.

I believe 4 are Cochin eggs, 4 are Delaware, 2 RSL, and 4 are mystery local farm eggs (I do know they're half Brahma).

8 of 9 have hatched. The last one is working hard at it.

Some of my Bresse eggs. Young rooster. Of the 22 eggs that started 11 were keepers.
9 for 9 now. The other 2 were added a few days after this set. One looks good the other iffy.

They're so fluffy! Mine are all getting feathers now. They're 8 days old. They're growing so fast!

Love the fluff stage. Doesn’t last long.

No, it doesn't last long at all. Mine look funny because they're all fluff besides their wings.
