    I set 3 different breeds of chickens on the 31st of January and a couple of days later set some quail so they would hatch together. Its day 22, no pipping. I lost 1 breed as they weren't fertilized at all, but the others have all grown on time and were viable at lockdown. This is my first rodeo...
