Coturnix Quail Fertile Hatching Eggs - 24ct + Extras

17 of 26 shipped hatched. Very good for shipped eggs. Let sit out 24 hours with fat end of egg up and then into the incubator. Went into lock down on day 15 and was expecting them to hatch on day 18 (Wednesday) but had 16 hatch on Tuesday day 17 with the late bloomer on day 18. Very healthy little chicks. Shipped well but feel like shipping could be faster. Seller created a label the day I ordered but did not actually ship the eggs for over a week. May be due to demand. I would still order again.

I’ll admit after USPS delivered them in 1° weather, I was worried they wouldn’t even develop. They were ice cold. So I reached out to the seller and received a prompt reply that calmed me down. So they’re great if you have questions or concerns.I ordered 12 and got 14. And due to their cold delivery I really appreciated the extras! I did let them sit out in the room for a full 24hrs before putting them in the incubator. On Monday morning, day 18, I had my first pip. And throughout the day I got a total of 8 that hatched. One didn’t make it which is just nature. So I got a technical 75% hatch rate.They are literally the cutest little things I’ve ever seen! Kind of like little tiny acrobats! One is super tiny and is the sweetest little baby, loves to be held! Super easy hatch!

I wanna start by saying customer service is very quick, pleasant, and helpful. I ran into an issue with shipping and it got solved quickly. I ordered 48 Quail Eggs, I’m very pleased with the packaging, quick shipping. The eggs were packaged amazingly with a nice slip of all the information needed to know. I got a total of 52 as 4 were extra. I broke down my hatch rate in different parts total eggs, order eggs and incubation eggs. My rate was wayyy above 80% for each part. I followed the directions exactly how it said. The egg colors are different patterns which is nice, the size is super cute, and very clean. I ended up hatching 41/45 which puts my hatch rate at a 91%, 41/48 is 85%. So I’m very pleased. They hatched on day 17,18, & 19. I had 3 late bloomers. I am posting this on day 19. I will update on how they turn out.However, I did have a sad day yesterday as I had 2 eggs that had movement but didn’t fully make it out. I ended up hatching twins but they didn’t make it, which made me so sad, but I’m very honored to have experienced that.Overall, I’m very happy to say I’ll be doing business with them again and it’s worth my money!Thank you for inspiring me and being so thoughtful!Update: So I have 38 quail alive at 3 weeks of age. They are blooming and so adorable. My kids love feeding them. I'm still happy with my hatch rate, and the amount I have now. Again, thank you for the amazing hatching experiencing.

While the Daily Bread Homestead Coturnix Quail Fertile Hatching Eggs boast a 5-star rating with several positive reviews, my personal experience was quite different. It's important to share both the positive and negative aspects to provide a balanced perspective.What I Liked:Fast Shipping and Secure Packaging: The eggs arrived promptly and securely packaged with foam padding, minimizing the risk of damage during transit.Apparent Health of Breeding Stock: The seller emphasizes their quail are humanely raised and healthy, which is important for successful hatching.Educational Opportunity: Raising quail eggs can be a fun and educational experience, as highlighted by the seller.My Experience:Low Hatch Rate: Unfortunately, only 6 out of 14 eggs hatched (43%), falling short of the expected results.High Chick Mortality: Sadly, 5 out of the 6 hatched chicks died within hours, leaving only one healthy chick.Unclear Cause: It's impossible to pinpoint the exact cause of the low hatch rate and chick mortality without further information or professional assessment.Overall:While Daily Bread Homestead seems to have a positive reputation and takes pride in their quail and shipping practices, my experience with their hatching eggs was disappointing. It's important to note that individual results may vary, and there are many factors that can influence hatching success.Additional Considerations:Incubation Conditions: Proper incubation temperature, humidity, and ventilation are crucial for successful hatching. Ensure your incubator is functioning correctly and calibrated.Candling: Regularly candling eggs throughout incubation allows you to monitor development and remove infertile or dead eggs.Breeder Reputation: While Daily Bread Homestead emphasizes their healthy breeding stock, consider researching other breeders and comparing reviews before making a purchase.Alternative Sources: Depending on your goals and resources, purchasing pre-hatched chicks or mature quail might be a more reliable option.Remember:Raising animals requires responsibility and proper care. Be prepared to invest time, resources, and knowledge before embarking on this endeavor.

All the babies hatched! These are high quality eggs. All hatched healthy, normal sized and quickly! I would highly recommend these for first time quail hatchers!

The media could not be loaded. After 18 days of incubation the eggs started hatching. 9/14 hatched and already in the brooder. 2 born with splayed legs fixed with a a few hours in a shot glass. 1 had a curled foot that was mostly corrected with a band aid wrap. 1 died after pipping another pipped 24 hours and isn't fully done absorbing the yolk but still has a slight chance. One more is wobbling on day 20. Chicks are small but over 80% hatched. I bought another dozen from another source and only had 3/12 hatch. The other suppliers eggs were twice the size and hatched quickly and flawlessly but with a bad hatch rate. Would buy again if there isn't any local to pick up
