my parents need to pick better hiding spots for presents lol

[fowltemptress]

The fridge? Lol, now that's an interesting hiding place. My parents hid stuff in my closet when I was a kid because they knew I was oblivious. I never looked for gifts anyway . . . I was always one of those kids who, if given the choice, refused to open a gift because it needed to be opened on the day, and not a moment before.

My brothers decided to search for their gifts early one year, and they found some of them stashed in the study closet. Somehow my parents found out about it, and on Christmas morning every gift my brothers had found was replaced with an empty box with a note that said, "This gift has been donated to charity." My brothers were extremely upset, but they never tried to peek at their presents early again. I thought it was a great idea to teach them a lesson, but that's probably because I wasn't the one it happened to.

Ohhhhhhhhhh i hope they are ok and you get them to hatch. It was sweet of your parents to get them for you!! Did they get you an incubator too?

it was bittersweet cuz i didnt wanna open any presents until my birthday, but they decided that since i basically found out they would just give it to me now

but i got a hovabator genisis 1588

and im lovin it

now i need to go find some dang info on bobwhites..lol i havent a clue about them, i only have coturnix which are laying up a storm

we just pickled our first eggs! it was fun

so now i know never to look in the fridge between thanksgiving and christmas because it might ruin everything lol... that reminds me i found a christmas gift in the back of our car while i was careing grocerys in lol..

i think my parents are just lacing in creativity lol

Bobwhites are pretty easy to hatch.

99.5°F, 45-55% humidity for the first 21 days; 65-75% humidity the last few days, should hatch on day 23-ish. They are a little smaller than the coturnix when they hatch, but act pretty much the same. Make sure you have marbles in the waterer, yada yada.

They tend to be a little more skittish than the coturnix, so the more you can gently handle them when they're little, the better.
Happy Birthday (early!) Have fun hatching!

Just wanted to give you hope..... I have hatched refridgerated chicken eggs. Ok, well, I haven't actually, but I gave some to a broody hen and SHE did.

Good luck and you are lucky to have parents like that!
