Does anyone else have a candling addiction

For a long time. Now I never candle till they go in the hatcher. Hatch rates skyrocketed after I stopped.

Couple yrs back we had the japanese beetles bad, last yr ladybugs were bad. keep finding them all over the place no matter how many times the wife vacuums.

The beetles r good chicken foods

Anyone have any luck buying quail eggs to hatch?  If so, where should I be looking?  I am hoping to find some for the Easter hatch.  I see some on Ebay and Craigs list, but there is also Strombergs and McMurray, any recommendations.  We live in Washington State, so I worry about the transit across the country.  

I would check Craigslist
That's where I had my pick of breeders

Also ask at the feed store,
Leave a wanted sign on the board.

You could call people off that board who sell other things and ask if they know of someone.

How many eggs did you set from MPC? Tell me about condition of eggs when you received them. Air cell shape, size? Rolling, saddle?

Originally had 14 Dom eggs and 2 BCM eggs. Air cells were all good upon arrival. 1 BCM had a saddle cell off to one side but that was the only one . They shipped the eggs on a Saturday and I got them on Monday. This is how they were packaged. Of the original 16 I had 15 that developed really well and 1 clear. Unfortunately I screwed up and was only able to hatch out the 6 Doms but I know what I did wrong so my next batch of Doms should hatch out better

Kinda hard to make 'em chicken foods when the bugs are inside and chooks ain't allowed inside.........something to do with them pooping everywhere.

What's there to try and figure out?

Not sure about the breeds, But I alway found laying them is better for me. For one it's natural. 2nd I found had them have a hard time getting out of the shell. 3rd had problems when they did hatch them sitting in there shells and getting stuck. I know people do it but I never liked it.
