hello everyone, well, about 4-5 weeks ago i put 5 of my coturnix quail eggs int he 'bator, not thinking anyhting good because they were 5 of my first quail eggs so i didnt expect them to hatch or develope, well THEY ALL HATCHED!!!! every single one of them! and there still alive and well today, there about 2 weeks old. well when those hatched, i put 14 more eggs int he 'bator, there hatching as we speak! so far 3 of the chicks are out and it seemd to be another 4-5 that are pipping and zipping! a few of them were duds so i should get about 9-10 that will hacth! im so excited! my nieghbor sptent over 50.00 in eggs on ebay and none hatched! so i gave the first 5 to him becuase he wanted to see them grow, plus its his 'bator
but i already have 10 quail now and i made a cage big enough for the ten, but isk what to do if i have like 10 more! but im going to get rid of the males if i get nay becuase i already have 2 with 8 females, so look for my post the classifieds in a few weeks lol
. so ill update tomorrow and ill let you guys know how many hatched and maybe get pics. how big of a pen would i need to house maybe 15-16 quail? right now i have my 10 quail in a 4 foot wide, 8 foot long and 4 foot high planted aviary, with an attached 4x4 house on it. but i would like to expand to accomadate the new flock. Thanks everyone!
