June 2021 Hatch - A - Long

[khpadventures]

The popcorn machine is making more noise. I see the kernels jumping around, and I can allllllmost hear the popping. Three more quail look like they are minutes away from hatching.

So exciting!

Number two just got out, number three is kicking out, and number four, that you can kind of see, should be out in a minute.

So tiny! Are they harder to care for than chicks?
I am bursting from the anticipation of Dodo's clutch.

They are just harder to keep a hold of!

Why do you prefer them over chickens?

I can keep more in less space, I get to use cool scissors to open their eggs, and while I don’t really like pickled eggs, I love using quail eggs to make jalapeño eggs. They are great in salad or as a snack whether I pickle them or not.

Scissors to open the eggs? Tell me more, lol.

I'm back for another hatchalong! This time I am doing the maiden voyage with the new Janoel 18s. I have set 10 partridge wyandotte (the oldest is 12 days so I am pushing it but) 4 bantam silver penciled wyandottes and 2 what I am assuming on shell alone, silver laced wyandottes. Either that or they are from the plymouth rock pullet but I am confident they are wyandotte eggs. There is still room for 4 more eggs so I am impressed. Set on 5th so should hatch 26th
