We came back from caving with Pathfinders this weekend to find our quail eggs have hatched. We now have 4 baby quail and a fifth has tapped a hole in his egg. One of the babies got trapped under the incubator plate so has somewhat splayed legs. I have made some hobbles for it. Hopefully will get it walking well tomorrow.
These are brown quail eggs. I found the nest when I was mowing and unfortunately uncovered it. Fortunately, none were broken and we began incubating. Hatched on the 17th day @ 37.5 degrees.
