Quail Rails?

[Nmarine1057]

Will the little giant quail rails work for silkie eggs?

If they are made for quail

they will not hold the silkie eggs

unless they are the standar racks


silkie eggs may be like a golf ball size but oval shaped

Thank you, just waisted some money then

Do you have a picture of those racks?

Here's one I put a quarter in one so you can judge the size better

You can try but I think a regular rack will work.

I've never seen silkie eggs but if they will fit in my regular turning trays I'll just use them

If you have some bantam eggs go ahead and try them on

it may work

also if you dont like to spend more money on more racks
you can add some wire and make a basket
and set the eggs on their side

I used regular racks to incubate peacock eggs just added wire

Silkies lay medium sized eggs.
