What should I do with all these Quail eggs?

[Akane]

Better to steam quail eggs. They'll slide right out of the shell even fresh. If you don't have a double boiler or steamer just get a strainer basket and fit it over a pot of boiling water with a lid. I usually just steam for 20mins which is the suggested time for chicken eggs. You can't over steam. You can get it too hot though and then they split. Rinse in cold water and pop them right out of the shell without so much as a crack in the whites.

HATCH THEM BABIES! Quail only take a little over a couple of weeks and are easy to keep. You can find the instructions on the quail part of this forum. I would love to have them but just set 40 corturnix quail eggs in my bator today.
