Hatching quail

[mcg30_40]

Yes I did a search but I'm looking for basic information that I'm not finding. HELP I'm looking at trying to hatch my first batch of quail. How long do they take, what temp, and what humidity? Any suggestions that make them different than chicken eggs?

It depends on what kind of quail. bobwhite take 23 days, cortunix take 17. Incubate them like chicken eggs. they are quite easy!

Just like a chicken. I had my chicken eggs and quail in the same bator and both sets of eggs hatched. 99.5F and 30-40% humidity. Then 3 days before hatch increase it to 50-60%. Other have different opinions but thats what works for me
