Possible Guinea Eggs in "Quail" Batch?

[keepmumsane]

Hi, im waiting for quail eggs in the post , never tried mail order,, so ive been following along with interest. .sad for your horrid postie experience, hoping that those chicks perk up. Thinking assisted hatching sounds scary, but this site has so much great advice and helpful folk. Shall be sitting with bated breath and fingers crossed for you all.

My quail eggs were shipped and some were cracked and broken but the ones that survived the trip did pretty well!

It's always an ordeal trying to post a darn picture, but I did my best. I just couldn't make the room bright enough.

You can kind of see his beak in the picture, and he's stopped zipping now.

He has air, he's breathing. Patience and he will absorb it all. It's stressful but it takes time.
Lean down and say, "excuse me, are you a chukar?".
