I have read somewhere , Not to sure if it was here. But to slow down the maturity of jumbo coturnix quail is by lights.. I think it was either 2 hours on and 2 hours off ... Or it was 2 weeks on or off. Does someone know.

I have my jumbo cortinix quail eggs on lock down since yesturday. I have never hatch them before. I am getting a bit worried that there is no sound or pip . There is nothing. Is this normal.?
I cant find anywhere. I will be raising jumbo quail mainly for meat. So they have to reach mature size then i will be process them. So how much do i charge for one cleaned.?
Now this is on jumbo only
Hi'
I just put 160 jumbo quail eggs in my incubator. When i did that,i notice a funky smell coming from the eggs. Not rotten. Just different. I was reading that they have a high ammonia smell to them. I was hoping to raise them all year round. Can someone tell me if this is true . If it is kept...
Lock down is in 2 days. I notice that my turner was the same way every time in looked in the incubator. But stupid me didnt notice that it wasnt plug in. I know it was plugged in at the start. Put someone needed the plug and unplugged it and didnt plugged it back in. I think this happened in...

I got a call duck egg today that didnt have any shell on it. I dropped it by mistake and it just bounced and stay all good. Now i was wondering.Is there any chance of incubating the egg with no shell. Is there any chance of doing this. ?Has anyone tried? Because the membrane is so strong i...
THis is my first hatch of duck eggs. I just put them in today. There is khakies and call ducks. I was reading not to put them in a turner. That you have better hatch rate if you hand turn them. I also read not to turn for three days . Then after they are about 7 to 10 days old. To start misting...
