Asda quail

Bought some quail eggs from Asda 18 days ago, thought I would put them in my incubator to see if I get any babies.

Every year I buy a few eggs - quail & chicken - as you always hear of success at hatching them, but never had any luck myself, until now I have 7 fluffy quail running round the incubator. All look healthy. The eggs were much bigger than the normal japanese eggs also in the incubator.

Im sooo pleased, cant believe Ive actually had some success after all these years!

Well done!

Well I think that calls for a piccy!

Well done Sally and the quails from Asda. Budha says, cheapest is best or was that confussious?

What colours have you got?

I had a look in my local Sainsburys, Asda and Tesco and none of them sell Quail eggs.

i had to get my quail eggs from a market in my area and they are due to hatch in a week so im crossing my fingers. how many eggs did u put in?

Will try to get pics tomorrow I put 12 eggs in the incubator.
I just happen to see the quail eggs in amongst the chicken eggs

There are 6 japs and 1 italian

Congrats Sally. Never seen quail eggs in Asda near us, you must be in an upmarket area!

Congratulations Sally! I've never seen quail eggs in any of our supermarkets over here.
Can't wait to see piccies

No not at all - I past another Asda - not our local one (which doesnt have quail eggs!) and they were hidden in amongst the normal eggs Might have to pop over there and get some more

ps. found one chick dead this morning

I have 5 quail left - 1 golden and 4 japs - 3 male, 2 female

i put some tesco eggs to my rcom and today is the day 15 so lets see what will happen:)

Blimey supermarket quail eggs going to soar at this rate lmao
Think I might just pop over to Waitrose, Asda, Tesco, M&S,Sainsbury and put each packet in and see what a colourful mix I get. Hey and I can obtain club points -bonus! LOL
Nils in silly mode, x

Tell em to hurry up!

Was looking for this post earlier - how strange it turns up now
My Asda quail have just started laying - eggs are normal size at the moment, but hope they get bigger - the birds seem huge - except the golden male - he is tiny Will weigh the birds and eggs over the weekend
