Yes, your Polish is a cockerel...
Alright - we just concluded our first quail hatch.
18 celadon eggs set, 15 fertile, 13 hatched. One had a hernia and had to be euthanized, but 12 healthy hatches from shipped eggs.
We are now going for the big gorilla.
I am looking for any pointers or tips anyone has on very large hatches.
51 - Cortunix mixed varieties
15 - Black Cortunix
36 - Celadon Cortunix
My question for anyone who has hatched this many eggs at once :
I suspect the candling to take atleast in hour, and was thinking of spreading it out over a few days as to not disturb the climate too much. Any tips for candling this many eggs?
(Last pic is of a white celadon chick - first hatched out of the last batch)
