Sep 30, 2008 #40 Akane Crowing 11 Years Jun 15, 2008 4,654 86 251 Quail eggs don't give as much warning as chicken eggs. I checked mine, saw nothing, sat down at the computer, and heard weird peeping. I checked the incubator to find this Then without anymore warning an hour later: By the next morning: 1 week old: Now 3 weeks old: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v244/aqh88/quail/brooder/?action=view¤t=SANY1047.flv They just pop out and before you know it they are fully feathered.
