Mearns Quail Hatching

[Partridgeguy]

I have been doing some reading that Mearns Quail need a dryer environment for incubation between 25 and 30 percent humidity? Anyone have any experience with them? Also how high would you bump the humidity the last 3 days of hatching? Thank you.

I would raise the humidity to no more than 60% for hatching

They are so pretty, but buying shipped coturnix eggs already makes me nervous, hopefully you have a local source with the price of eggs!

The price of Mearns eggs is $30/ egg....not likely to find anyone raising them locally!
