Awesome! Good luck

That's awesome! I read you're setting 3 dozen quail? How many of your silkie eggs? And how are the quail chicks doing? Do they grow as fast as chicken chicks?
Thanks! I did the same with the octagon 20 after my last hatch. I rinsed it out but didn't disinfect it until yesterday! I ordered a new hygrometer and that zorb fabric stuff. I'm starting experiments with humidity this weekend!
Thanks, Amy!

I put 7 silkie/cochin eggs and 2 eggs that I believe are Katherines (dont really expect them to develop, but what the heck) on turning only, will add heat tomorrow and add the quail eggs Tuesday.
The quail grow faster, just not as big. They eat (and poop) alot!
I've got a couple cute pics to post, gotta switch to desktop lol
Hard to believe the girls will lay their own eggs in 6-8 weeks!

Good luck with the humidity tests! I'll be anxious to see what works for you!

They really are growing! the one on the spool of thread is the smallest, last hatcher. The one that popped out in my hand.

Missed one. Check out these wings already.

My brain keeps wanting to make them chick-sized so the spool of thread and your fingers really help put them into perspective!

They are so cute.

You close enough to drive (everywhere is close enough to drive in my book) or are you going to try shipped eggs?

Interesting concept. The nearest big breeders to me are 10 and 12 hour car trips. The ones I most want are a 4 day trip. There is no way I would call that close enough to drive

Can't wait to read how your humidity experiments turn out! I also want to see pictures of the zorb and get your impression of it.

Me too!

They are adorable.

I know! I want to see one up close and personal. I don't think you can totally get it from pics.

LOL Me either.
