Hey Christine!

Hi Jaz! Where are you getting your Ancona eggs?

 

[Eyeheartquail]

They sounds like the multipurpose bird to have around! Are the less domesticated ones still as useful? There's a man about 45 minutes from here that sales California Valley Quail and Bob Whites. 

i would never have bobwhites. they are known to be serious jerks. im not sure about valley quail.

I keep trying to give her quail, and eggs. 

Lol, if she was smart she would take them

. Can a call sit on quail eggs? She's determine to sit. 

I have no idea. i have heard no to chickens brooding them because the eggs are so fragile but maybe worth a shot? coturnix are almost never broody. ive never had a broody either. i have some hens that do well with hatchlings but could actually care less about the young. they seem to never miss them. Sad.lol.

Hi everyone!

My egg/baby didn't make it. It was chirping some so I thought it was almost ready and then it stopped making noises.

So now there are three eggs left developing.

I have some beautiful Ancona and my own CAYUGA babies ! Also am hatching 76 Giant Pekins, and 30 Heritage Turkey, and 65 Guinea, and OHIKI's from the 24 LD !!

Go Master Bator!

No we are not that much of a hatchery

We just have a happy appetite for things wrapped in bacon!

Is it wrong to feed chickens chicken?

Mmm. Bacon.

Chickens are cannibalistic. If you feed chickens eggs, then why not chicken?

That's just a weird thought....
