Hello!
We are looking to add button quail to our family in the coming weeks. I’m a bit confused about the incubation and hatching timeline. I was hoping someone could clarify.
If I order eggs from eBay today and they arrive next Wednesday (for example), does the incubation time start when they are in transit because they are out of a cooler holding temperature? Or the 17 day count start the day I put them in the actual incubator?
Any insight would be helpful! We are going away on a trip for like two days, and I don’t want to chance the timing being wrong.
