Coturnix Quail Fertile Hatching Eggs, 12 Count Hens Choice

Received 12 eggs. After candling after 2 weeks in the incubator 9 were fertile. 7 hatched at around 18 days. 2 did not hatch. This is the first time hatching quail eggs so I'm happy with the results. After 3 days the seven are doing well. I bought game bird feed at the local farm supply that was 28% protein. I ground it up more in a cheap blender to almost a powder for the new babies. Put in a paper towel in the (homade) broader box. I will feed them this for the first couple weeks then give them the feed without blending. I put water in some 2 litter bottle caps for them to drink. They can reach it easily. I also have a regular quail waterer that holds a quart of water. They will get used to it as they grow. Make sure the waterer is for quail and not chickens. They will drown in a chicken waterer. They drink and eat pretty often so make sure they don't run out. They'll rest alot also. It's amazing how tiny they are when hatched. Hopefully you'll have as good luck as I did. I found quail eggs locally for 3 dollars a dozen so I'll probably go that route next time but overall I had a good experience with these eggs.

Not even 1 hatched, I've hatched alot of chicks and this has never happened, I won't be buying these eggs again.

I ordered a dozen 11 of the eggs were fertile and 8 of them hatched. The delivery was right on time and they were packaged pretty well and they gave me a nice discount for my next order. The ones that hatched were very healthy, and they were nice and fluffy once they dried. When they hatch they are the size of the pink baby mice.

First time hatching quail and I used a cheap Okkobi incubator with rollers and touchy humidity "controls" 10 of 12 candled at day 12 and amazingly 9 of 10 hatched no problem, unfortunately the last failed to zipper fully and one die at 2 days old 2 but for both I blame my inexperience. Eggs were very well packaged in several layers of boxes and padding. Overall very happy with my purchase and would definitely purchase again. The variety of breeds in the "hens choice eggs" are super cool!

The eggs arrived 4 days earlier then I had expected which is great! 6 out of the 12 had cracks and 1 had been broken and dried over. I placed all of them into my incubator anyway. I will update again once they begin to hatch. Update: out of the 12 eggs only one quail hatched and he/she was very loved until it died 4 days later. It had a balance issue and couldn’t stand upright. Long story short, I will try to find eggs locally next time. Changing my 4 stars to 2 due to the fact that only 1 hatched.

Had 7 of the 12 hatch. One did arrive cracked and other 5 were not fertilized at all. Other than that great experience. Beautiful variety of colors.

We ordered a dozen eggs and we were sent 16 so 4 extra. We let them settle for the appropriate time and put them in our brooder. We had several that pipped but didn't make it all the way out. We got 6 babies total but one was late hatching and died a few days later due to weakness and toe curling. For them being shipped during a cold spell we were happy to get the babies that we did. We would order again but maybe during warmer weather. I usually get at least a 50% hatch but this is the first time ordering eggs through the mail. The packaging was fantastic too not one egg was damaged.

Bought from these guys multiple times and everytime ive had 10% success rate on hatching and when asked they wont ever make it right and blame it on the delievery companies for the handeling and shipping
