the size of bobwhite quail eggs

[kingpincray]

Hi I have a pair of bobwhite and I keep them under light. the female has just started laying and the eggs are quite small compared to japanese quail eggs. How big are the eggs of bobwhite normally?

I'd say about half as big as a coturnix's egg. If you've ever seen a button quail egg, they are in-between the two sizes (coturnix and button).

I got a few bobs in the bator that r due Thursday. They a lot smaller than the coturnix but at least you can see through them with a light

Ok, I was getting worried that the eggs are not getting any bigger as they lay them as the birds are bigger than japanese quail. Thanks.
