I was wondering if bantams hatch faster than standard. I have read here of some setting quail eggs up with chicken eggs but I thought that they hatched in 17 days. How do you do that? How do you incubate with duck eggs or goose eggs with chickens?
 
Different species of poultry hatch after different lengths of time. For example, turkeys take 28 days while chickens take 21. When I hatch chickens and turkeys together I start the turkey eggs 7 days earlier than the chicken eggs. They hatch together.
