I love this. It takes me back to the war years in London, England when I was a boy. I used to buy day old chicks from the pet shop and raise them to supplement our food that was rationed. We had no electricity then. I used to fill a rubber hot water bottle. Wrap it in a towel and put that and the chicks in a cardboard box. Some didn't survive but quite a few did and did was intended. They fed us. Keep the videos coming. They are always interesting.

I was thrilled to see that you showed the complete process in ONE video! The chain of events from receiving the eggs to hatching made perfect sense and I loved this! I have only really seen Quail in the wild where I live, I am sure someone raises them, but I have not seen them for sale and I am thinking this would be a great adventure. THANK YOU!!! and God bless!

Check out Craigslist if you are looking for local, but Myshire ships all over. They are in Ohio and I am in California and I hatched from the.

Excellent hatch rate, I've been raising jumbo cortunix quail and Northern Bob White quail for several years. Anytime I can get over a 50% hatch rate with my farm innovator incubator I feel like it's a success. I've been wanting to get a new incubator for a couple of years now, and you've motivated me to pull the trigger on the purchase. Another great video by Living Traditions Homestead.

MyShire is awesome and has a fantastic quail community. Good luck with these babies.

I started with 20 Jumbo quail It has now been a year. I has now grown to more than a hobby. I currently have 200 of my own quail in the Incubator.

I’m glad I’m not the only one with boxes of canned goods on the floor in my house,🤣 I’m going to dispatch some quail this morning! Then I’ll start a hatching! Love how fast they grow!

Brilliant idea to show the full stages of the egg to hatching process all together in one video. Great job! This has helped me with figuring whether I can handle them on my own. Love your channel! ♥️

Sarah's smiles are like what a new momma has❤ this is so wonderful

Very interesting! I love the tenderness of quail eggs. This video was wonderful to watch because you had all the stages edited together wonderfully. Looking forward to seeing the birds grow!

I am excited for you and the new large quail. The babies look like popcorn jumping around in the incubator.

This is exciting! Quail have been on my want list for a while! Thanks!

oh I miss my quail so much! I used to raise them in my apartment, I had all the meat and eggs I could eat. but eventually I had to stop as it was just too messy. but I so miss hatching out the chicks, it was the most fun I have had in my senior years. keep up the good work on your farm I so enjoy watching you.

At least it won't be as long as the piglets!" And then, WOO-HOO! We used to incubate chickens and this brought back some good memories. Thanks for showing us all of your adventures.

The one that hopped backwards into the warmer 😂😂😂 i ordered scarlet fee from myshire and im super excited to watch them hatch. I love your vids thank you!

I started with 13 Coturnix quail, bought a cheap incubator and quail rails from a home and farm store, and by the end of my first year I had well over 100 quail. Our hatch rate was nearly 90%. It was definitely a great return on our investment. We had customers for the eggs at our church and harvested several batches of birds. I found eviscerating the small birds a little tedious, but I probably just didn't have my technique down to speed through them.

I just put my Jumbo mix quail eggs from Myshire in my incubators also! We’re going to try and raise 400 a month. Cool incubator! We’re getting the Wynola cages also. I am so happy you’re back into quail so I can see how you all raise them. Thanks for showing us your journey with them.
