How many Quail eggs did you get today?

[Just Ranchin]

Yes. Mine lay anywhere from 3PM to 8PM.

Mine seem to be doing the same. Wasn't expecting that when I got them.

I know, me neither. I assumed I'd find them in the morning when I got up.

Make sure they have at least 14 hours of light per day. This will give you more eggs, but will also shorten the lifespan of your hens.

They are on lights now as of a few days ago. Had to wait for then to arrive. Slowly bumping up the amount of time they are on. They weren't previously with lights. Today we got 3 eggs! The most to date.

6 one night then 12 the next day over 48 hours, 2 per each of my nine hens?! Normal rate, weird interval!

1 yesterday now 4 eggs today! Woohoo!!

 

[TeresaW]

Only my normal 2, not sure why my others, who are now over 8 weeks, aren't laying yet.

I got three today, a first for one of my hens.

4 eggs again today. That's supposedly what they were laying daily with their previous owner. I'm hoping now that they have lights that will continue to increase a bit. I'd like to get enough collected to give incubating a go.
