Quail eggs help

[bkquail]

Hello, I just got my quail eggs to incubate in the mail. I was wondering what the minimum time I should let them sit before putting them in the incuator? I dont want to wait I want them to hatch now

12 hours is the recommend minimum. U can keep them upto 24 hours. Make sure you let them sit at least for 12 hours so they can settle down after all the shaking during shipment. Good luck!

Ugh this is going to be one of the longest 17 days of my life lol

I've always let them sit a minimum of 8 hours with good results
