OUR FIRST QUAIL EGGS ARE IN THE INCUBATOR!!!
Hopefully this'll work!
After getting our quail a while ago, we've been eagerly awaiting this day. We have been so blessed after we traded some rabbits with @armadillocreek in order to get our quail, and now we are trying to hatch some more!
FIRST QUAIL EGGS IN THE INCUBATOR VIDEO
HERE WE GO!
Sweet-Pepper and I had a nice time tonight placing some of our quail eggs into our incubator. After seeing baby chicks, keets, and ducklings already, we can't wait to see firsthand how incredible the tiny quail are going to be.
Like many of the things that we deal with on our homestead, we like to involve the children. This is such a special and precious thing anyway, even for us adults, so how much more special will it be for a three year old? Sweet-Pepper helps out with all of the menial and "less than exciting" chores, so I made sure to include her on this one!
Hopefully, in just under three weeks, we should have some tiny baby quail to check out. If it works out for us, I'll do a full how-to video to share the steps, process, and whatever else goes along with it! Stay tuned and we'll keep you posted!
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

The waiting time for it is so much fun and exciting but the most thrilling part when only 1 more day to go before hatching. It will just take 17 or 18 days of incubation before the quail eggs will hatch. Good luck @papa-pepper. Please update us on how many eggs successfully hatch :)
Great news!....:)...
That's so cool! I hope everything works out, and that we will see the babies in a few weeks :)
Will eventually you eat quail eggs. I believe on Master Chef they said those were a high quality egg they were surprised more people didn't eat.
Quail babies are adorable! We have many of the wild variety around my home and the wee ones are like little walnuts skittering about. 🙂 How fun!
Wow! That must be so cool to see!
They are quite neat to see. The mama quail usually have 20 or 30 of the little guys in a batch. I always stop for them to cross the road, and they just skitter all over the place at they follow mama. 💕
@papa-pepper how cool is this going to be ?? The @little-peppers are going to Love the Babies..............
OH yeah! We can't wait!!!
Oh my gosh, that is so exciting! They're gonna be so cute and tiny!
Must be a wonderful experience for Sweet-Pepper.
Can't wait to see those tiny fluffballs!
Cool post, thanks!
Those aren't quail eggs. Those are dinosaur eggs! Pigmy Pterodactyls to be exact.
Welldone sir, truly hard work pays. Happy sunday
